Analysis of Damped Plates

Abstract

This report presents three design-oriented methods for the dynamic analysis of sandwich plates, i.e., laminated plates incorporating a core layer of viscoelastic material for vibration damping. The methods are complementary in that each represents a different trade-off between generality, accuracy, and cost of use. This work was performed by the Aerospace Structures Information and Analysis Center, which is operated for the Flight Dynamics Laboratory by Anamet Laboratories, Inc., under Contract F33615-81-C-3201. The work was performed in support of the Advanced Radiation Technology (ART) Program Office at the Air Force Weapons Laboratory.
