    Methods to Approximate/Guess the damping of a structure w/o any experimental data

    MAIN QUESTION: Is there a procedure/method for approximating the damping properties (Rayleigh coefficients for example) of a structure when you have no data on the damping [and you cannot run experiments to determine the damping properties]? I was wondering if there is a way I could quickly...
