A simple mathematical formula is proposed to predict the fluid damping effects in poroelastic materials. Biot’s poroelasticity equations are solved to obtain the response of poroelastic materials undergoing harmonic tension-compression and bending deformation. Complex moduli of poroelastic material are explored from the response functions on basis of mathematical models. It is shown that the effects of material parameters, geometrical parameters, and flow boundary conditions on the fluid damping are predicted by simple mathematical formulas. Numerical results are presented and compared with those of other researchers.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
