  2. 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

  3. Kelvin–Voigt material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin–Voigt_material

    Schematic representation of Kelvin–Voigt model. 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. 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.

  5. Viscoelasticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscoelasticity

    The Maxwell model can be represented by a purely viscous damper and a purely elastic spring connected in series, as shown in the diagram. The model can be represented by the following equation: σ + η E σ ˙ = η ε ˙ {\displaystyle \sigma +{\frac {\eta }{E}}{\dot {\sigma }}=\eta {\dot {\varepsilon }}}

  6. Models of communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Models_of_communication

    Frank Dance's helical model of communication was initially published in his 1967 book Human Communication Theory. [161] [162] [163] It is intended as a response to and an improvement over linear and circular models by stressing the dynamic nature of communication and how it changes the participants. Dance sees the fault of linear models as ...

  7. Maxwell material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell_material

    A Maxwell material is the most simple model viscoelastic material showing properties of a typical liquid. It shows viscous flow on the long timescale, but additional elastic resistance to fast deformations. [1] It is named for James Clerk Maxwell who proposed the model in 1867. [2] [3] It is also known as a Maxwell fluid.

  8. 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. Particle ...

  9. Dynamic modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_modulus

    The ratio of the loss modulus to storage modulus in a viscoelastic material is defined as the ⁡, (cf. loss tangent), which provides a measure of damping in the material. tan ⁡ δ {\displaystyle \tan \delta } can also be visualized as the tangent of the phase angle ( δ {\displaystyle \delta } ) between the storage and loss modulus.
