Body panels in automobiles are usually stiffened by beads and are covered with viscoelastic damping layers. In the first report, method of numerical analysis for modal loss factors of the bead panels were verified by experimental results. In the analysis, asymptotic method was applied to complex eigenvalue problem using three-dimensional FEM in consideration with complex material parameter. In the second report, influences of geometry (height, length, interval) of the beads on modal loss factors were clarified. In this report, layouting the viscoelastic materials on the surface of the bead panels using damping contributions of positions of the materials to modal loss factor properly, modal loss factors can be improved. Further, by investigating bead shapes which can concentrate distribution of dissipated energy on local area in the panels, effective shape of beads is proposed in consideration with modal loss factor, light weight and rigidity.
