Abstract
Discussed in detail is the manner in which the damping possessed by rubberlike materials and structures experiencing sinusoidal vibration may be represented by the ratio of the imaginary to the real part of a complex elastic modulus. Examples are given of the way in which the damping possessed by low- and high-damping rubbers depends on frequency. Equations that predict the response to vibration of such distributed systems as damped rods and beams, and a simple structure comprised of two damped beams and a lumped element of mass are derived; and representative computation of input impedance and transmissibility are presented.
