In the present study, the damping behavior of hybrid composites has been investigated using dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA). The composites were fabricated with 2, 4, 6, and 8% by weight of rice husk ash (RHA) and SiC in equal proportions using two stage stir casting process. Damping measurements of all the specimens were obtained by dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA) at different frequencies in air atmosphere. Scanning electron microscope (model JSM-6610LV) was used to study the microstructural characterization of the hybrid composites. It was observed that the dislocation density, which results from the thermal mismatch between the reinforcement and the matrix and the porosity of composites, has a great influence on the damping capacity of hybrid composites. The dislocation damping mechanisms were discussed with regards to the Granato-Lucke theory. (C) 2015 Brazilian Metallurgical, Materials and Mining Association. Published by Elsevier Editora Ltda.
