An example of a material with a large damping capacity is gray cast iron.

Damping capacity is the ability to absorb vibration energy.

Furthermore the couplings should provide a large damping capacity in order to keep vibrations at a minimum.

The graphite also gives gray iron an excellent damping capacity because it absorbs the energy.

E Manufactured from cast grey iron for high damping capacity and resistance to fatigue stress.

Damping capacity is the ability of a material to absorb energy by converting mechanical energy into heat.

In most cases, increasing the damping capacity results in reduced vibration amplitudes.

Grey iron also has very good damping capacity and hence it is mostly used as the base for machine tool mountings.

Good-quality natural granite is becoming more and more difficult to find, but has a higher damping capacity than cast iron.

Materials like brass and steel have small damping capacities allowing vibration energy to be transmitted through them without attenuation.

The damping capacity of the Fe-17Mn alloy increases with increasing epsilon martensite content.

There was a flash that momentarily overloaded the sensors' damping capacity, and the hostile armor collapsed in a fuming heap.

Other important characteristics of many fiber-reinforced composites are their non-corroding behavior, high damping capacity and low coefficients of thermal expansion.

A large damping capacity is desirable for materials used in structures where unwanted vibrations are induced during operation such as machine tool bases or crankshafts.

Damping Capacity Aluminium Bronzes are twice as effective as steel in their ability to dampen vibrations.

Ultrasonic testing of castings is difficult due to their high damping capacity, especially of the propeller alloys containing high manganese levels.

Investigation of dynamic moduli and damping capacities of composite materials leads to description of the physical properties of composites, including the effects of environmental degradation.

It has the elasticity of a good rubber but it also has unusual damping capacities: by deformation it absorbs energy from an elastic material and as a damper it dissipates the energy absorbed.

It can be machined at high speeds with substantially less power, and has good welding properties, superior damping capacity for shock loading and noise control, excellent corrosion resistance and low heat content, which permit die casting rates 1.5 times that of aluminum.
