Abstract
Diminishing the vibration level in industrial structures becomes an essential point. both to avoid fatigue failure and to improve the comfort, from a vibratory or an acoustical point of view . This goal is generally fulfilled through the use of damping treatments. These can be single layer or constrained layer damping treatments. In both case, the efficiency of these methods is closely related to the knowledge of the dynamical characteristics of the applied material. Indeed, for successful results, the damping treatment should suit the vibratory problem. For a reliable prediction of the vibratory response of the damped system, one needs accurate values of the damping material physical characteristics. These are the complex moduli, which are temperature and frequency dependent ([3]).
