Outrageously Funny Word Dictionary :: Damped

👉 Damped is a term used in physics and engineering to describe a system that exhibits oscillatory behavior due to an external force. The term "damping" refers to a reduction in the amplitude of oscillations, typically caused by friction or other resistance forces acting on the system. This process can occur at any point along the path of motion, causing the system to become less stable and more susceptible to sudden changes in direction.
