Abstract

A mixed numerical experimental approach is the basis of a new method for the identification of the material damping properties of fibre reinforced polymers, which provides an answer to many problems encountered in experimental damping characterization. Experimental modal parameters, measured on a plate specimen, are compared with corresponding results from a numerical calculation, thus allowing to determine the stiffness and damping properties of the material. The relation between the modal parameters (structural parameters) and the material parameters, is obtained by using a numerical model of the specimen in combination with the modal strain energy method.
