1. | Damping values are defined directly on the CDAMP2 entry and therefore do not require a PDAMP entry. |
2. | A structural viscous damper, CVISC, may also be used for geometric grid points. |
3. | Up to four damping properties may be defined on a single entry. |
4. | This card is represented as a property in HyperMesh. |
