Studies on damping characteristics and parameter optimization of anisotropic laminated damped structure

Abstract

An anisotropic design is introduced to the laminated damped plates in this paper. The parameter effects on the loss factor of anisotropic laminated damped plates have been analyzed in detail. The damping analyses and control mechanism of laminated anisotropic damped plates have been carried out theoretically. Finally, through the software developed here, the parameter optimization has been conducted on the loss factors of the anisotropic laminated damped plates. The results indicate it may provide scientific basis for the new optimization anisotropic design of laminated damped plates used in Aircraft cabin structure for obtaining the maximum loss factor.
