What is Material Damping in Zero-G Space Structures about?
This thesis describes an experimental apparatus called the Tuned Excitation Launch Mechanism (TELM) that measures the free decay of beam specimens launched into simulated zero-gravity conditions. Various materials were tested including aluminum, graphite/epoxy composites, and metal matrix composites. For aluminum specimens, damping followed the Zener model when frequency was above the relaxation frequency but showed stress dependence at lower frequencies. Graphite/epoxy [0] laminates exhibited little freque
