Abstract

In the present day scenario, materials with high damping capacity and good mechanical properties are significant to suppress mechanical vibrations. In pure metals or alloys, even though the mechanical properties are fairly good, the damping capacity was found to be stumpy. Composites are a better choice which simultaneously exhibits good mechanical properties and high damping values. In the present review, the damping behavior of metals, alloys and its composites is summarized and presented.
