DETERMINING THE DAMPING COEFFICIENT FOR THE SUSPENDING ELASTIC ELEMENTS OF A VIBRATING FEEDER

Journal Title: ISB-INMA TEH AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL ENGINEERING - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 1

Abstract

The damping coefficient describes how vibrations are decreasing after a disturbance occurring in a mechanical system. In other words, a damping coefficient is a material property that indicates whether a material will react to a disturbance or return energy to the system. If the reaction of the material is caused by an unwanted vibration or shock, a high damping coefficient in the material will diminish the response. The suspending elastic elements from a vibrating feeder are made of steel and accumulate some of the vibration energy and then return back, in time, thereby reducing the dynamic loads. In order to evaluating the system responses to dynamic loading conditions we perform an experiment where we determined the damping coefficient of the suspending elastic elements.
