The Magnetoelastic Contribution to the Steel Internal Damping

Abstract:
In this paper, the steel internal damping due to both the thermoelastic and the magnetoelastic phenomena has been investigated through a formulation based on thermodynamical potential joints with a hysteretic damping model. With the aim of focusing on the temperature transient in the solid, a first configuration has been considered, which is characterized by a steel rod with an imposed alternating pure shear strain in which only the thermoelastic contribution was studied. The magnetoelastic contribution was then introduced in a further configuration, in which a steel rod in free motion was subjected to torsion on its ends in the presence of a constant magnetic field. A quantitative assessment of the influence of the magnetoelastic dissipation in steel has been computed according to the Sablik-Jiles model by giving a comparison between the thermoelastic and the prevailing magnetoelastic damping coefficients.

Magnetic Damping
If, however, the bob is a slotted metal plate, the magnet produces a much smaller effect. When a slotted metal plate enters the field, an emf is induced by the change in flux; however, it is less effective because the slots limit the...

Dynamic Modulus of Elasticity of Concrete
The sonic test is a common method to determine the dynamic modulus. In this test, a concrete beam, sized either 6 x 6 x 30 inches or 4 x 4 x 20 inches, is clamped at its center. Vibrations are initiated at one end of the beam by an electromagnetic exciter unit powered by...
