The damping vibration characteristics of magneto-electro-viscoelastic (MEV) nanobeam resting on viscoelastic foundation based on nonlocal strain gradient elasticity theory (NSGT) is studied in this article. For this purpose, by considering the effects of Winkler-Pasternak, the viscoelastic medium consists of linear and viscous layers. with respect to the displacement field in accordance with th...

Among the passive control techniques for vibration attenuation in composite structures demonstrated in the last decades, the use of viscoelastic material as a damping core in laminated beam like components is an interesting possibility but has not yet received sufficient attention so far. In order to gain an insight into this interest and develop more accurate and efficient viscoelastic-based v...

attempts have been made for the first time to produce a friction material with thermal sensitive modulus by the inclusion of combined plastic/rubber properties of thermoplastic elastomers (tpe) as viscoelastic polymeric materials into the formulation for the purpose of increasing the damping behavior. in order to evaluate the viscoelastic parameters such as loss factor (tan δ) and elastic modul...

this paper is concerned with the surface and small scale effects on transverse vibration of a viscoelastic single-layered graphene sheet (slgs) subjected to an in-plane magnetic field. the slgs is surrounded by an elastic medium which is simulated as visco-pasternak foundation. in order to investigate the small scale effects, the nonlocal elasticity theory is employed due to its simplicity and ...

Objectives: This paper describes further improvement and preliminarily evaluation of a novel viscoelastic ankle-foot prosthesis prototype. The objective was to control the ankle hysteresis at slow and normal walking speeds. Methods: Inspired by the ankle biomechanics, in which the hysteresis differs based on the gait speeds, a manually damping control mechanism imbedded in the prosthesis for...

Temperature has an influence on damping characteristics of the viscoelastic damping structure. The change of the damping characteristics of the structure under the cycle load is a dynamic and coupled process. The hyperelastic-viscoelastic model was used to describe nonlinear deformation and viscoelasticity simultaneously. The temperature distribution and change of the damping characteristics un...

The viscoelastic properties of three commercially available resin-based composites (FiltekTM P60, FiltekTM Supreme, and FiltekTM Z250; 3M ESPE, Bracknell, UK) were measured to determine the effect of beverages on their storage moduli and damping ratios. Rectangular samples of the three hybrid composites were immersed in three beverages at 37 °C for 1, 7, 30, and 60 days. At each time interval, ...

A numerical method is proposed to calculate damping properties for sound-proof structures involving elastic body, viscoelastic body, and porous media. For elastic and viscoelastic body displacement is modeled using conventional finite elements including complex modulus of elasticity. Both effective density and bulk modulus have complex quantities to represent damped sound fields in the porous m...
