Coextrusion : a feasible method to manufacture negative stiffness inclusions

This work demonstrates the effectiveness of coextrusion as a method to manufacture negative stiffness inclusions for use in vibrational damping applications. The theory and mechanics of negative stiffness and coextrusion are introduced and the process of creating and extruding a feed rod with negati...
