What is Damping Factor?

Amplifier Frequently Asked Questions
Though technically more complex than this, Damping factor is usually thought of as an indicator of how tight an amplifier will sound when powering bass speakers. A speaker's driving motor is a coil of wire (called a voice coil) mounted within a magnetic field. As this coil of wire moves within the field a voltage will be induced in the voice coil.

What is damping?

Piezo Systems - Frequently Asked Questions
Damping' is the term used for the general tendency of vibrating materials or structures to lose some elastic energy to internal heating or external friction.

What is rebound damping?

Matrix Integrated :: Service - Performance - Excellence ::
A damper, also known as a shock or strut, has two ranges of motion. As the shaft of the damper extends out of the damper body, the damper is in rebound. In application, as your vehicle exits a bump, the dampers will rebound. The core function of rebound in a damper is to provide the roll control of the vehicle. Another function of damper rebound is to control the spring rate on the car. A car with too little rebound will be unable to control high spring rates.

What is compression damping?

Matrix Integrated :: Service - Performance - Excellence ::
A damper, also known as a shock or strut, has two ranges of motion. As the shaft of the damper compresses into the damper body, the damper is in compression. In application, as your vehicle enters a bump, the damper will compress. Compression damping is the primary factor in ride quality, road compliance and steering response. Compression force can also act as additional spring rate in a car. It is possible to run a strong compression damper, with a very soft spring.

Digressive damping describes the style of damper valving. Double-digressive simply means that the damper valving is digressive on both the compression and the rebound side of the damper. Digressive (as the name implies) means that the compression or rebound force will change or digress from a given path at some point. In comparison, a linear rate damper follows the same increasing path.

What about the fear factor? Why do I fear quitting so much?
