Optimal damper positioning in beams for minimum dynamic compliance

TL;DR: In this article, an efficient and systematic procedure for finding the optimal damper positioning to minimize the dynamic compliance of a cantilever beam is proposed, which is expressed in terms of the amplitude of a transfer function of the tip deflection evaluated at one of the undamped natural frequencies.
