Damping matrix

In applied mathematics, a damping matrix is a matrix corresponding to any of certain systems of linear ordinary differential equations.

If the system has n degrees of freedom un and is under application of m damping forces.

Each force can be expressed as follows: It yields in matrix form; where C is the damping matrix composed by the damping coefficients:
