- the ability of a device to prevent instability [n DAMPINGS] / DAMP, to lessen in intensity [v]
- decreasing of the amplitude of an electrical or mechanical wave
- energy-absorbing mechanism or resistance circuit causing this decrease
- reduction in the amplitude of an oscillation or vibration as a result of energy being dissipated as heat
