<p>More specifically, there is provided a vibration damping structure having an inner metal skin (21) and an outer metal skin (22) and a damping layer (23) secured between the metal skins (21, 22), with each of the metal skins (21, 22) having a cut (27, 28) therein. The damping layer (23) is a viscoelastic material which is capable of adhering to the metal skins (21, 22). The cuts (27, 28) are circular, encompassing and isolating an area wherein a connecting means (15) connects the vibration damping structure to another body. The cuts (27, 28) extend through the inner metal skin (21) and the outer metal skin (22) to the damping layer (23).</p> |
