hi everyone,

I have values of damping for a single degree of freedom system interms of damping ratio for a particular mode of vibration. the damping is purely contributed by a rubber material due to its material property. How do i convert this ratio into equivalent material damping coefficient or some other useful form so that i could use these values for my analysis in ANSYS ?

I want to input these values as a material property rather than a constant damping ratio. This would be helpful for my future analysis.

Thank you
