  2. Damping factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damping_factor

    Comparison of damping factors for a solid state amplifier (Luxman L-509u) and a tube amplifier (Rogue Atlas) In typical solid state and tube amplifiers, the damping factor varies as a function of frequency. In solid state amplifiers, the damping factor usually has a maximum value at low frequencies, and it reduces progressively at higher ...

  3. Shock response spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_response_spectrum

    Different damping ratios produce different SRSs for the same shock waveform. Zero damping will produce a maximum response. Very high damping produces a very boring SRS: A horizontal line. The level of damping is demonstrated by the "quality factor", Q which can also be thought of transmissibility in sinusoidal vibration case.

  4. Damping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damping

    Damping not based on energy loss can be important in other oscillating systems such as those that occur in biological systems and bikes [4] (ex. Suspension (mechanics)). Damping is not to be confused with friction, which is a type of dissipative force acting on a system. Friction can cause or be a factor of damping.

  5. Anchor losses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anchor_losses

    In physical systems, damping is the loss of energy of an oscillating system by dissipation. [1] In the field of micro-electro-mechanicals, the damping is usually measured by a dimensionless parameter Q factor (Quality factor). A higher Q factor indicates lower damping and reduced energy dissipation, which is desirable for micro-resonators as it ...

  6. Logarithmic decrement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithmic_decrement

    The logarithmic decrement can be obtained e.g. as ln(x 1 /x 3).Logarithmic decrement, , is used to find the damping ratio of an underdamped system in the time domain.. The method of logarithmic decrement becomes less and less precise as the damping ratio increases past about 0.5; it does not apply at all for a damping ratio greater than 1.0 because the system is overdamped.

  7. Transmissibility (vibration) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmissibility_(vibration)

    There is no unit designation for transmissibility, although it may sometimes be referred to as the Q factor. The transmissibility is used in calculation of passive hon efficiency. The lesser the transmissibility the better is the damping or the isolation system.

  8. Curve fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curve_fitting

    Fitting of a noisy curve by an asymmetrical peak model, with an iterative process (Gauss–Newton algorithm with variable damping factor α).Curve fitting [1] [2] is the process of constructing a curve, or mathematical function, that has the best fit to a series of data points, [3] possibly subject to constraints.

  9. RLC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RLC_circuit

    In the filtering application, the resistor becomes the load that the filter is working into. The value of the damping factor is chosen based on the desired bandwidth of the filter. For a wider bandwidth, a larger value of the damping factor is required (and vice versa). The three components give the designer three degrees of freedom.
