A Comprehensive Review on the Viscoelastic Parameters Used for Engineering Materials, Including Soft Materials, and the Relationships between Different Damping Parameters by Hasan Koruk, Srinath Rajagopal

“…The dynamic indentation method, rheometry, atomic force microscopy, and resonant vibration tests are commonly used to identify the damping of materials, including soft materials. While the viscous damping ratio, loss factor, complex modulus, and viscosity are quite common to describe the damping of materials, there are also other parameters, such as the specific damping capacity, loss angle, half-power bandwidth, and logarithmic decrement, to describe the damping of various materials. …”
