The boring operation is a very critical manufacturing process which created surface roughness, tool wear, noise and vibration related problems. A deep internal boring operation in a workpiece is a classic example of chatter-prone machining. This review focuses on study of new damping composite materials for boring tool and introduces new advance viscoelastic materials for vibration attenuation ...

The design and the optimization of structures with constrained layer damping (CLD) treatment requires an efficient numerical tool. The frame of this work is the modelling of thin constrained viscoelastic layers embedded in a massive structure meshed in 3D. A zero-thickness interface finite element is developed in order to model this viscoelastic layer, which enables to modify both its placement...

Mode selection of guided waves in an elastic steel plate with thick coating layer has been studied here. E€ect of both thick elastic coating and damping of the coating layer on the dispersion and mode shapes has been investigated and modes that are less a€ected by elastic coating and damping have been identi®ed. For modeling the viscoelastic behavior of the coating layer, the standard linear so...

We present a mathematical framework to provide general well-posedness and approximation results for a laminated curved beam. The layered beam consists of an elastic core layer, symmentric viscoelastic damping layers, symmetric constraining layers and bonded piezoceramic patch pairs on the outer surfaces. The model includes unbounded inputs from the piezoceramic patches, hysteresis and shear in ...

In this paper the Semi-Analytical Finite Element (SAFE) method for modeling guided wave propagation is extended to account for linear viscoelastic material damping. Linear viscoelasticity is introduced by allowing for complex stiffness constitutive matrices for the material. Dispersive characteristics of viscoelastic waveguides, such as phase velocity, attenuation, energy velocity and cross-sec...

Large conduit arteries are not purely elastic, but viscoelastic, which affects not only the mechanical behavior but also the ventricular afterload. Different hysteresis loops such as pressure-diameter, pressure-luminal cross-sectional area (LCSA), and stress-strain have been used to estimate damping capacity, which is associated with the ratio of the dissipated energy to the stored energy. Typi...

The identifiability of the two damping components of a Generalized Rayleigh Damping model is investigated through analysis of the continuum equilibrium equations as well as a simple spring-mass system. Generalized Rayleigh Damping provides a more diversified attenuation model than pure Viscoelasticity, with two parameters to describe attenuation effects and account for the complex damping behav...
