Elastomer performance is often evaluated using static properties, but real-world behavior is governed by dynamic, frequency-dependent response. This article explores how testing at natural frequency reveals critical insights into damping, energy loss, and material performance that conventional methods miss.
The design of the Dynamic Mechanical Yerzley Oscillograph (DMYO-V) is loosely based on its predecessor...
In this study we investigated elastomeric materials based on natural rubber used in the manufacture of rubber and rubber-metal vibration isolators. Basic anti-vibration properties were identified and stability over time was predicted. To achieve the objectives, tests were conducted on a mechanical oscilloscope Yerzley AYO-IV.
The concept of the new “Dynamic Mechanical Yerzley Oscillograph – V” is based on the...
