Abstract

Laminates consisting of a high-damping core material sandwiched between two stiff, weldable skins. The laminate structures have increased resonant freguencies, improved damping characteristics, do not outgas, and may have a decreased inertial moment. The laminates are comprised of 100% metal constituents, and do not rely on epoxy or low-melting point solders.
