    AAE556-Lecture 31 Structural Damping

    Uploaded by

    oigres725
    Structural damping is an energy dissipation mechanism in metals due to slipping between micro surfaces that generates heat. It differs from viscous damping in that it does not depend on fluid drag. The document discusses the differences between viscous and structural damping, defines the structural damping coefficient, and describes how to measure structural damping through harmonic shaker tests and include it in equations of motion.

    Aeroelasticity

    Structural damping - an energy


    dissipation mechanism

    1
    Purdue Aeroelasticity
    A few preliminaries
    Differences between viscous and structural
    damping

     Viscous damping
    – Energy dissipation due to heat generation from
    viscous fluid drag in a fluid
     Structural damping in metals
    – Sometimes called “hysteretic damping”
    – Due to slipping between micro surfaces
    – Heat is generated and energy dispersed
    – Different from viscous mechanism
    – Magnitude of energy loss depends upon material
    type and mode of vibration

    Work done by viscous damping is
    the area inside a hysteresis loop

    Energy expended by the viscous forces
    (work done)

    work done by
    viscous force
    is negative or
    dissipative

    5
    Purdue Aeroelasticity
    A different case - Dissipative structural damping -
    internal damping forces-not velocity dependent

    The constant 
    is material and
    displacement
    dependent
    Torsional motion
    damping is
    different than
    plunge damping.
    Why?

    Work is not frequency dependent

    Viscous and structural damping
    energy equivalence

    What would an equivalent


    structural damping need to
    be to have the same energy
    extracted by a viscous
    damper?

    7
    Purdue Aeroelasticity
    Write the “viscous” equation of
    motion using equivalent structural
    damping

    Use a complex
    solution approach

    Result after assumed solution
    substitution No
    frequency
    dependence
    but there is
    an “i”

    This is the harmonic response of a single DOF


    spring/mass system including structural damping.
    The constant  is a material parameter determined
    by experiment and it is always positive.

    9
    Purdue Aeroelasticity
    Define a new engineering term
    - the structural damping coefficient, gx

    This is a very poor choice of


    letters because damping looks
    like gravity!!

    Summary

     Structural damping depends on the type of


    strain (cantilever beam motion or twisting
    motion) but does not depend on strain rate
    (frequency).
     Structural damping depends on the type of
    material (steel, aluminum, composite)
     Structural damping constant is only
    meaningful (valid) for forced harmonic motion
     Structural damping always dissipates
    (removes) energy from the system
