abstract = "Unreinforced, Long fiber and Short fiber polypropylene composites are being used in many antivibration applications, due to their time and temperature dependent specific mechanical properties. Their good damping behavior accounts for many engineering applications. For utilization of these materials in specific engineering applications, there is a need to understand the damping behavior of composites under dynamic load. For this work, unreinforced and 20% long and short reinforced glass fiber polypropylene composite materials were tested for forced transverse vibration damping characteristics under static as well as fatigue loading conditions. The damping characteristics are quantified by forced frequency response of the test material. Presence of reinforced fibers increases the damping capacity. Among reinforcements, short fiber reinforced polypropylene shows increased damping capacity then long glass fiber reinforced.",
