"Damper" Member Type

Using the "Damper" member type, you can define a damping coefficient, a spring constant, and a mass. This member type increases the possibilities within the time history analysis.

With regard to viscoelasticity, the "Damper" member type is similar to the Kelvin-Voigt model, which consists of the damping element and an elastic spring (both connected in parallel).
