  • Damping curve.  (part 1)
  • A damping curve can be viewed by plotting the force and velocity on a graph.
  • Here's a graph that shows the two stacks we've been looking at.
    • The blue line shows the damping curve of the stock stack, #1024.
    • The pink line shows the curve of mod stack with the 2 shims removed, #1027.  
      • The forces are similar from 1 - 5ips, then the mod stack starts to get softer.
      • It's easier to see what's happening at the lower velocities of we crop the graph.  Here is a graph that only shows 0 - 20 ips.
        • The graphs give you a quick overview of how the two stacks compare. 
        • But you can't see the exact numbers or the percentage changes looking at the graph.  Therefore, we prefer looking at the numbers and then visualizing the graph.
