I think the transmission, other than near resonance frequencies, is more affected by stiffness than damping. I am more expert at measurements than at structural dynamics, so maybe someone else can give better information.

The primary reason I have most often heard is that you can get the same, or better, dynamic characteristics from a magnesium alloy fixture with lower weight. Since a shaker system has a specific force limit, the total weight may limit the available acceleration capability. When testing small...
SRS is a theoretical response of a generalized structure to a shock input. It is not related to a specific structure. It is said to indicate relative damage potential as a function of natural frequency. SRS plots are generated using specific damping of the SDoF models; your structure will no...
