An attempt to determine a relationship between a mass-spring-friction damper single-degree-of-freedom system’s equivalent viscous damping ratio and its corresponding friction coefficient
van Rensburg, Kiyan; Ramhormozian, Shahab (2021-04-14)Damping forces are always present in real structures, occurring in several different forms, making them challenging to model expressly. Damping is often assumed to be viscous in nature, due to the simplicity of the ...
