Horizontal and Vertical Dashpot Constant Conversion
Horizontal and Vertical Dashpot Constant Conversion
(OP)
A co-worker came to ask me if I knew the equation to convert a Vertical Dashpot Constant (2.793x10^6 lb-s/in) and Horizontal Dashpot Constant (1.626x10^3 lb-s/in) to % Critical Damping.
Any help on this would be great, I've only ever seen damping as a percentage... then again I haven't been in the biz for very long.
Thanks!
