Damping Properties of Light Alloys,

Abstract

Damping characteristics for magnesium and aluminum alloys were determined on cast and deformed materials. All loading was torsional. Measurements were taken for vibrational decrement, strain, and amplitude. The data show a magnesium alloy, (Mg-0.6Zr) to be most suitable for structural applications requiring resistance to vibrational loading.
