Science Buddies: The Unconstrained Truth About Constrained Layer Damping
This science fair project shows you how to transform a noisy piece of metal into a sound-muffling constrained-layer damper. You will record the sound of a controlled impact on a piece of metal with a microphone, a computer, and some free...
