On the Experimental Determination of Damping of Metals and Calculation of Thermal Stresses in Solidifying Shells

This thesis explores experimentally and theoretically two different aspects of the properties and behaviour of metals: their ability to damp noise and their susceptibility to crack when solidifying. The first part concerns intrinsic material damping, and is motivated by increased demands from societ...
