Damping Characteristics<br />
Coupling damping varies directly with torsional stiffness and<br />
inversely with frequency for a given rubber grade. This<br />
relationship is conventionally described by the dynamic<br />
magnifier M, varying with hardness for the various rubber<br />
types.<br />
M =<br />
K<br />
Cω<br />
Torque = (k + icω) aeiωt + δ<br />
δ<br />
Deflection = aeiωt<br />
This property may also be expressed as the Damping Energy<br />
Ratio or Relative Damping, which is the ratio of the damping<br />
energy, AD, produced mechanically by the coupling during a<br />
vibration cycle and converted into heat energy, to the flexible<br />
strain energy Af with respect to the mean position.<br />
Where C = Specific Damping (Nms/rad)<br />
K = Torsional Stiffness (Nm/rad)<br />
ω = Frequency (Rad/s)<br />
