Hi,

Can someone help me to explain about acoustic resonator damping capacity?

As per my understanding, damping capacity is the ability of the material/system to absorb any incoming energy (i.e. mechanical energy) into heat.

Hence, if some acoustic resonator (example, Helmholtz resonator) having a high damping capacity, it means that the pressure amplification ratio of it is low?

Do you have any related reading material that explicitly explain about this concept?

Any help/explanation in order for me to understand about this concept is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
