... compression energy dissipation National Natural Science Foundation of China 10.13039/501100001809 11972125 12102101 As a novel passive control means, the acoustic black hole (ABH) allows for the design of lightweight and highly damped structures, conducive for numerous vibration...

... energy dissipation capacity, and the regular polyhedron chain network models can well describe the mechanical properties of the viscoelastic damper at different environmental temperatures and excitation frequencies. The configuration schematic and a specimen of the viscoelastic damper are shown in Figs...

... is investigated analytically. For this problem, a boundary value partial differential equation is formulated via contact mechanics. In particular, the effect of interfacial pressure distribution variation at the interface of the layered structures on the energy dissipation and logarithmic damping decrement...
