[en] This study focuses on identification and modelling of vibration characteristics of a nanocomposite; an epoxy resin as thematrix and fumed silica as the reinforcement. The resin alone is manufactured and characterised. Using the same methodology,the manufacturing and characterisation of the silica-reinforced nanocomposite are performed. Following the manufacturing and theexperimental characterisation process, a nonlinear model is built to represent characterised behaviour. The model is validated by aseparate test case which is also an experimental technique to extract the damping characteristics of a structure.
