Abstract
The loss factors and their effects on the magnitude and frequency of resonance peaks in various mechanical systems are reviewed for acoustic, vibration, and vibration fatigue applications. The main trends and relationships
were obtained for linear mechanical models with hysteresis damping. The well-known features (complex module
of elasticity, total loss factor, etc.) are clarified for practical engineers and students, and new results are presented
(in particular, for 2-DOF in-series models with hysteresis friction). The results are of both educational and practical interest and may be applied for NVH analysis and testing, mechanical and aeromechanical design, and noise
and vibration control in buildings.
