Analysis of the magnetic domain-wall motion in a nanostructured magnetic system with strong spin–orbit coupling shows that the energy dissipation can be chiral when the inversion symmetry is broken.

• Urethane damping materials cure faster than water-based versions and have comparable damping performance. • PVC plastisol damping sheets and tiles quiet airborne noise 100 times better than bare ...

If you damp your drums too much, they will sound dead and you'll struggle to make yourself heard over the rest of the band. Damping should not be a substitute for careful tuning. Nothing is worse than ...

Continuous damping control is an electronic system that can adjust the tension in a shock absorber to create a more dynamic ride for the vehicle. Delphi Corp. uses a special fluid that can be made ...

When faced with the challenge of reducing cost without sacrificing quality, damping grease can be a useful tool in a design engineer's bag of tricks. Damping greases are specialty lubricants that ...

The input stage of an off-line power converter usually contains an LC averaging filter. A common practice is to damp the LC filter using additional reactive/dissipative components. In this article, we ...

In Power Tip #3, we discussed how the source impedance of an input filter can turn resistive, and how it can interact with the negative input impedance of a switching regulator. At worst case, these ...
