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

    You guys are on the same exact page as me. The exception is that I don't have a real structure to "hit", but other than that I'm doing the exact same thing as GregLocock suggested. Basically, I'm trying to do the same thing that GregLocock is talking about, except I replace the real-life...

    Funded PhD in Mechanical Engineering: Yes or No

    I went to get my MS degree in mechanical engineering from a top 10 engineering program (in the USA). I was funded as a researcher for the degree. I was offered funding for stick around for the PhD (it would be about 2 more years). I'm unsure about a PhD in Engineering though. I have heard...

    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...

    Methods to Model and approximate damping in FEA (for impact sim.)

    SHORT VERSION 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]? LONG VERSION I was wondering if there is a way I...
