Laminar Blade Damper

Description
-
This device consists of multiple layers of graphite-epoxy sheets separated from each other by a film of silicone grease. The sheets are interleaved and fastened to a structure in such a way as to permit sliding motion between alternate sheets as the structure bends. Damping results as this sliding motion is resisted by the viscosity of the silicone grease.
