  2. Dashpot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dashpot

    A less common type of dashpot is an eddy current damper, which uses a large magnet inside a tube constructed of a non-magnetic but conducting material (such as aluminium or copper). Like a common viscous damper, the eddy current damper produces a resistive force proportional to velocity. A common use of the eddy current damper is in balance scales.

  3. Kelvin–Voigt material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin–Voigt_material

    The Kelvin–Voigt model, also called the Voigt model, is represented by a purely viscous damper and purely elastic spring connected in parallel as shown in the picture. If, instead, we connect these two elements in series we get a model of a Maxwell material .

  4. Viscous damping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscous_damping

    In continuum mechanics, viscous damping is a formulation of the damping phenomena, in which the source of damping force is modeled as a function of the volume, shape, and velocity of an object traversing through a real fluid with viscosity. [1] Typical examples of viscous damping in mechanical systems include: Fluid films between surfaces

  5. Damped machining tools - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damped_machining_tools

    Normally, piezoelectric devices are the common apparatus for researchers when developing active damping tools. The passive damping tools can be divided into constrained layer damping tools and tuned mass dampers. The tuned mass dampers transmit the vibration energy to an extra unit on the structure and maintain the unit under focus to be stable.

  6. Particle damping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_damping

    Viscous and viscoelastic damping usually have a relatively strong dependence on temperature. Friction dampers, while applicable over wide temperature ranges, may degrade with wear. Due to these limitations, attention has been focused on impact dampers, particularly for application in cryogenic environments or at elevated temperatures.

  7. Standard linear solid model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Linear_Solid_model

    Materials undergoing strain are often modeled with mechanical components, such as springs (restorative force component) and dashpots (damping component).. Connecting a spring and damper in series yields a model of a Maxwell material while connecting a spring and damper in parallel yields a model of a Kelvin–Voigt material. [2]

  8. Damping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damping

    [1] [2] Damping is an influence within or upon an oscillatory system that has the effect of reducing or preventing its oscillation. [3] Examples of damping include viscous damping in a fluid (see viscous drag), surface friction, radiation, [1] resistance in electronic oscillators, and absorption and scattering of light in optical oscillators.

  9. Viscous coupling unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscous_coupling_unit

    The first mass-produced viscous couplings for a permanent 4WD off-road-capable vehicle were in the AMC Eagle, which was produced from 1980 to 1988 model years. [2] The AMC Eagle's single-speed model 119 New Process central differential used a viscous coupling filled with a liquid silicone-based material. [ 3 ]
