description A simple method for determining viscoelasticity over a wide frequency range using the frequency response function (FRF) mobility obtained by the center impedance method is presented. As user data comprise the FRF between the velocity of the excitation rod and excitation force, it is challenging to separate the signal and noise. Our proposed method is based on the FRF obtained from the analytical solution of the equation of motion of the viscoelastic beam and relationship between the complex wavenumber (real wavenumber and attenuation constant) of flexural wave and viscoelasticity. Furthermore, a large loss factor can be handled over a wide frequency range without using the half-power bandwidth. In this study, actual FRF mobility data containing noise were processed using preprocessing, inverse calculation, and postprocessing.
