Investigating Ferroelastic and Piezoelectric Vibration Damping Behavior in Nickel-Barium Titanate and Nickel-PZT Composites

Ferroelectric and piezoelectric ceramic reinforced metal matrix composites are new materials being explored for vibration damping purposes. The high damping ability of ferroelectric and piezoelectric ceramics such as barium titanate (BaTiO3) and lead zirconate titanate (PZT) is due to the anelastic...
