Abstract
Analysis for the transient response of a simply supported three layer viscoelastically damped sandwich plate, subjected to a half sine shock pulse, has been carried out, with account taken of the transverse inertia effects only. The properties of the viscoelastic core material have been represented by those of a four element viscoelastic model. The influences of the variation of various geometrical and physical parameters of the damped sandwich plate on the shock response are investigated. The decay rate of the transverse vibrations of the plate is evaluated in terms of the logarithmic decrement.
