Vibration harmonics of metal deadening
Vibration harmonics of metal deadening
(OP)
thread384-73900: Designing A Chime, resonance of a metal tube?i was curious if anyone has used different materials of metal knowing their harmonics to cancel or deaden the vibrations?
RE: Vibration harmonics of metal deadening
I do not understand "has used different materials of metal knowing their harmonics to cancel or deaden the vibrations". Do you mean natural frequencies instead of harmonics?
There are some metals with enhanced damping properties, and perhaps these search links would help:

I have used constrained layer damping material applied to metal surface.

I was curious if the use of a softer material such as Copper laid over steel would reduce effects of vibration similar to a copper head on a steel hammer used in metal working does.
