Shock and vibration damping device using temperature sensitive solid amorphous polymers
Long time mechanical and thermal stability of polymeric materials predicted from accelerated testing at increased temperature-time relations
Damping mechanism, containing polymeric-like materials is applicable to a wide range of shock and vibration. The polymeric-like material changes from a relatively stiff material to a relatively soft, rubbery material in the region of their glass transition temperatures. The energy absorption characteristics and stiffness are controllable with temperature.
