A hydropneumatic pulsation filter is a pressure container with separate inlet and outlet, connectable to a pipe system so that all pressure changes must attempt to pass through said chamber. Entry and exit of said chamber being of a diameter relative to chamber diameter that provides a high discharge coefficient, and without close proximity of ...
Blast dampers usually employ some type of blade held open with tension from a spring. The damper blades close automatically when pressure overcomes the resistance offered by the spring. Various models differ in the amount of blast protection (e.g. 1 bar/14.5 psi or lower amounts of protection) and whether they stay closed after the blast or ...
Polaris Fashion Place is a two level shopping mall and surrounding retail plaza serving Columbus, Ohio, United States.The mall, owned locally by Washington Prime Group, is located off Interstate 71 on Polaris Parkway in Delaware County just to the north of the boundary between Delaware and Franklin County.
A shock absorber or damper is a mechanical or hydraulic device designed to absorb and damp shock impulses. It does this by converting the kinetic energy of the shock into another form of energy (typically heat) which is then dissipated. Most shock absorbers are a form of dashpot (a damper which resists motion via viscous friction).
A harmonic balancer (sometimes called crankshaft damper, torsional damper, or vibration damper) is the same thing as a harmonic damper except that the balancer includes a counterweight to externally balance the rotating assembly. The harmonic balancer often serves as a pulley for the accessory drive belts turning the alternator, water pump and ...

A Stockbridge damper is a tuned mass damper used to suppress wind-induced vibrations on slender structures such as overhead power lines, [1] long cantilevered signs [2] and cable-stayed bridges. The dumbbell -shaped device consists of two masses at the ends of a short length of cable or flexible rod, which is clamped at its middle to the main ...
Damper (food), a bread of the Australian Outback; In mechanical engineering, a damper is a device for suppressing vibrations in a mechanical system by dissipating energy. Dashpot, a type of hydraulic or mechanical damper; Shock absorber (British or technical use: damper), a mechanical device designed to dissipate kinetic energy
