Impact damping and vibration attenuation in nematic liquid crystal elastomers

Nematic liquid crystal elastomers (LCE). exhibit unique mechanical properties such as large loss behaviour, which makes these materials interesting for damping applications. Here, the authors investigate the effect of anomalous damping in LCEs by comparing impact dissipation in shaped samples with e...
