Modeling of damping in dynamics
linear
Summary:
Linear dynamic analyzes of the structures subjected to imposed forces or movements
require to add characteristics of mechanical cushioning to the characteristics of rigidity and of
mass model.
One has several traditional modelings, applicable to all the types of finite elements available:
· the model of viscous damping,
· the model of damping hysteretic (known as also “structural damping”)
for the harmonic analysis of viscoelastic materials.
For the analyzes using the methods of dynamic response by modal recombination, with a base
modal of real clean modes, it is possible to introduce modal damping coefficients.

Concept of mechanical cushioning
1.1 Models
of damping
The movement of the structures subjected to forces or movements imposed, variable with the course
time, depends, in particular of the properties of damping, i.e. of the dissipation of energy
in materials constitutive of the structure and the connections of the various elements of structure
between them and with the surrounding medium.
The physical phenomena intervening in this dissipation of energy are many frictions,
interaction fluid-structure in a fluid blade, shocks, viscosity and plasticity, vibratory radiation
with the supports.
The models of behavior representing these phenomena are often known little about and it is not
possible to explicitly describe them at the elementary level. This is why the most used models
are the simple models which make it possible to reproduce on a macroscopic scale the principal effects
on the structures [bib1] [bib2]. Those currently available in Code_Aster are:
· viscous damping: dissipated energy proportional to the speed of the movement,
· damping hysteretic (known as also “structural damping”): dissipated energy
proportional to displacement such as the force of damping of sign is opposed to
that speed.
Let us note that the damping of Coulomb, which corresponds to a damping of friction for which
dissipated energy is proportional to the force of normal reaction to the direction of displacement is not
currently not established in Code_Aster.
The values of the parameters of these models are deduced from experimental results. At the stage of
design, one is limited to the use of guiding values.

Model of viscous damping
2.1
Physical definition of viscous damping
The traditional cushioning devices (rolling of a viscous fluid through the openings of a piston
pulled by the vibratory movement) forces proportional to the speed of the movement deliver
and of opposite sign. During a cycle, the work of these forces is positive: it is damping
viscous.

Model of damping hysteretic
3.1
Physical definition of damping hysteretic
For a sinewave excitation applied to an elastoplastic structure or an elastic structure
with friction, the curve force-displacement reveals a positive work of the external force which
corresponds to an energy dissipated in the structure, which one can at first approximation
to represent like below:
F
F
U
U
Elastoplastic
Slip
In both cases the loss ratio believes, in general with the amplitude of the cycle. For values
weak of the loss ratio (< 0.2), the form of the cycle does not have an appreciable effect on the movement
and one can compare it to an ellipse [bib1].
In the particular case of a relation force-displacement whose cycle is of form elliptic,
the expression of the loss ratio is simple. For a force applied F and a displacement
U = u0 cos the force of recall is K u0 cos and damping forces it - H u0 sin what leads
with the relation of balance F = K u0 cos - H u0 sin.

Other models of damping
One does not treat models here representing the damping “added” by the motionless fluids
confined or fluids moving. One will refer to the booklet [R4.07] coupling fluid-structure.

Analyze structure with damping
Modelings presented are not easily generalizable with the various analyzes of
structures Cf. [§1].
Note:
Two modelings do not have the same field of linear analysis:
· viscous damping is usable in transitory or harmonic analysis,
· damping hysteretic is usable only in harmonic analysis.
The options of modelings in Code_Aster allow the definition:
· of a total damping for the structure,
· the depreciation located on meshs or groups of meshs.
5.1
Total damping of the structure
In the absence of sufficient information on the components and connections creating a dissipation of energy,
a current modeling consists in building a matrix of “total” damping.
5.1.1 Viscous damping proportional “total”
One places oneself within the framework of the traditional equations of the dynamics of the linear structures:
MR. U
! + C U! + K U = F (T) éq
5.1.1-1
The concept of damping of RAYLEIGH makes it possible to define the matrix of damping C like
linear combination of the matrices of rigidity and mass:
C = K + M
éq 5.1.1-2
Advantages:
· easy to implement by using operator COMB_MATR_ASSE [U4.53.01], after having
assembled the matrices of rigidity and mass with real coefficients.;
· useful for the validation of algorithms of resolution;
· historically, its success is attached to the methods of transitory analysis by recombination
modal starting from a base of real clean modes.
Properties of orthogonality of the real clean modes solution of the problem to the values
clean (K - 2 M) = 0 result in the simultaneous diagonalisation in the passage
in generalized modal co-ordinates of T K and T Mr.
The damping of RAYLEIGH is a condition sufficient for diagonaliser T C.

Disadvantages:
· This modeling does not make it possible to represent the heterogeneity of the structure compared to
damping.
· The damping actually introduced into the model strongly depends on the identification
coefficients and Cf. [§ 5.1.2].
5.1.2 Influence damping coefficients proportional
Three simple cases of identification are presented here to illustrate, the effects induced by this
modeling:
· damping proportional to the characteristics of inertia: = 0, = I
This case was very much used of direct transitory resolution: if the matrix of mass is
diagonal, that of damping is still and the space saving memory is obvious.
The coefficient can be identified with reduced damping experimental I of the mode
clean (I, I) which takes part more in the answer Cf. [éq. 2.1-1] from where I =
2 II. For
any other pulsation one obtains a reduced modal damping =
I
I. Modes
raised >> I will be deadened very little and the modes low frequency < I too
deadened.

· damping proportional to the characteristics of rigidity: = J, = 0.
The coefficient can be identified, like previously starting from J associated with
mode (J, J) from where J =

modal tiny room = J sow. The high modes >> J are very deadened, etc….

In none the preceding cases, one will be able to reproduce an assumption of equal modal damping

5.1.3 “Total” damping hysteretic

system of complex equations or (
F) is a harmonic excitation.

all modes from where = 2
Advantages:

assembled the matrices of rigidity.;
· very useful for the validation of algorithms of resolution;
· the damping actually introduced into the model is constant for all the modes of
structure, as asks it payments of construction.
Disadvantages:
· this modeling is badly adapted for the industrial studies, because it does not allow
to represent the heterogeneity of the structure compared to damping.
· only the harmonic analysis (in complex) is possible.

5.2 Damping

For the analyzes requiring a modeling representing the heterogeneity of the structure, it is
possible to affect characteristics of damping located on the meshs of the structure, in
fact on elements of the model.
5.2.1 Elements
damping devices
It is possible to apply elements discrete damping devices:
· on meshs POI1: damping is related to the displacement (respectively speed) of
node support,
· on
meshs
SEG2: damping is related to relative displacement (respectively
relative speed) of the two nodes connected.
Operator AFFE_CARA_ELEM [U4.24.01] allows to define for each discrete element:
· a matrix of damping of the viscous type adiscret whose terms are affected to
various degrees of freedom from the nodes concerned; several modes of description of
matrix are available.
· a hysteretic loss ratio discrete multiplying of the matrix of rigidity of the element
discrete affected with the mesh support.
5.2.2 Affected damping with any type of finite element
The affected elastic material with any finite element can be defined with parameters of damping
by operator DEFI_MATERIAU [U4.23.01]:
· Viscous damping proportional with two parameters of RAYLEIGHT and.

The assembly of the elementary matrices of damping is obtained with operator ASSE_MATRICE
usual [U4.42.02] or by macro command MACRO_MATR_ASSE [U4.31.02]. One must use them
same classifications and same mode of storage as for the matrices of rigidity and mass

by a whole of real clean modes, obtained on the associated problem not deadened
(K - 2 M) = 0.

Let us recall that in the case of heterogeneous damping (use of the options
of damping localized), the matrix T C is not by diagonal.
· use of viscous modal damping by providing a reduced modal damping
constant for all the modes or a list of values I.
Several methods of identification of these coefficients are possible but there does not exist

in harmonic analysis a request for evolution with operator DYNA_LINE_HARM
[R5.05.03] [U4.54.02] is deposited. It is not treated in version 3.6.
For the analyzes by dynamic under-structuring, with the use of a modal base (bases
RITZ) one will refer to [R4.06.03] and [R4.06.04].

Use of the complex matrix of rigidity
The matrix of rigidity complexes K * = K + KH, where KH is an imaginary matrix (within the meaning of
complexes!), is usable for the direct harmonic analysis with operator DYNA_LINE_HARM
[R5.05.03] and [U4.54.02] and key word MATR_RIGI.
For the analyzes by modal recombination, no functionality is currently available for
the hysteretic use of the model of damping.

Complex modal analysis
The matrix of viscous damping C is essential for the modal analysis complexes with
operators dealing with the quadratic problem with the eigenvalues
[R5.01.02]:
· by iterations opposite
MODE_ITER_INV
[U4.52.01]
· by simultaneous iterations
MODE_ITER_SIMULT
[U4.52.02]
For the search for eigenvalues, no functionality is currently available for
the use of the model of hysterical damping.
Let us recall that the complex clean modes allow an approach adapted better to the study
dynamics of the strongly deadened structures (reduced damping > 20%). To date no tool
of dynamic response by modal recombination using a base of complex clean modes
is not available in Code_Aster.
