Abstract

Viscoelastic dam** treatments are an interesting solution for the vibration control of light and large structures. Despite the simplicity of the dam** mechanism that characterizes this vibration control system, the design of these treatments is complex and requires some specific strategies to handle properly the description of the material behavior, to represent accurately the kinematics of all the layers of the damped structure and to apply optimization procedures to improve the dam** efficiency. This Chapter presents a review on viscoelastic dam** treatments, and those important issues related to the material characterization, numerical modeling and optimization are thoroughly analyzed and explored.
