Polymers for Vibration Damping Applications is a detailed guide to the use of polymers and polymer composites for vibration and shock damping. Vibrations in structures and machines create component fatigue, and correct design, preparation and utilization of polymeric materials can play a critical role in ensuring durability and performance in automotive, marine, civil, and defense applications.The book begins with two chapters introducing the fundamentals of both vibration and shock damping. The next part of the book presents in-depth coverage of polymeric materials for vibration damping, including viscoelastic properties, design of polymer systems, and modes and applications. Finally, measurement techniques are discussed in detail. Throughout the book, the different perspectives of materials and engineering are considered, and both mathematical and conceptual approaches are used.This is an essential resource for all those looking to understand the application of polymers for vibration damping, including researchers, scientists, and advanced students in polymer science, plastics engineering, materials science, and mechanical engineering, as well as engineers and R&D personnel in the automotive, marine, defense, and construction industries.
  • Equips the reader with a complete, fundamental understanding of vibration and shock damping
  • Explains the viscoelastic properties, design, and applications of polymeric materials for vibration damping applications
  • Includes cutting-edge research on the use of polymers for advanced civil and defense applications
