What is the definition of viscous damping and viscous damping coefficient especially in Civil Engineering.?
== Answer }
Damping coefficient for viscous fluids?
The damping coefficient ς is a parameter which determines the behavior of the damped system
What is the viscous damping coefficient c of air in Nsm-1 where F-cv?
16.35
What has the author F G Brotchie written?
F. G. Brotchie has written: 'An optimization approach to viscous damping of structures'
What is negative damping?
It is the opposite of normal damping (oscillation decreases), so in negative damping to get even bigger oscillation.
How is light damping achieved?
The amplitude of resonant oscillations can be reduced by damping.Light damping reduces oscillations slowly.Heavy damping reduces oscillations quickly.Critical damping stops the oscillation within one cycle.The graph above shows light damping.
Applications of critical damping?
critical damping is when the amount of damping is large enough for the system to return toequilibrium as fast as possible without performing oscillations. Hope thatHELPED
What is geometric damping?
Geometric damping is also called radiation damping. It is defined as energy radiation into a surrounding medium. Damping is defined as energy dissipation property of structures and materials that are put through time-variable loading.
What is damping level?
In the damping level the level view and vertical spindle are crossed together...
How does surface area affect damping of an oscillation?
The larger the surface area, the larger the damping of an oscillation
Why is sharpness of resonance inversely proportional to the damping force?
the further the frequency from the resonant one, greater would be the damping effect, hence greater the sharpness the lowre is the damping effect
What are the different methods of damping used in analog indicating instruments?
Damping torque can be provided by: (a) air friction damping (b) fluid friction damping (c) eddy current damping. In air friction damping, a light piston moves with a very small clearance in air chamber. The piston moves against pressure of air in air chamber. In fluid friction damping, light varies are attached to spindle of moving system. The movement of spindle is suppressed due to fluid friction, Eddy current damping is one of the most efficient method of damping. It is based on the principle that whenever a sheet of conducting but non magnetic material like copper or aluminum moves in magnetic field, eddy currents are induced.
