| To E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} Y634. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}3/KT.22.10.31. VIBRATION DAMPERS. If you have finished with those calculations on the Buick type damper, we should be glad to have them back to investigate our own type of damper. You will see that in the calculations from the complete case of spring driven viscous friction, this can be done by assuming the spring infinite.
