Application of FGPMs for shunted passive vibration damping of laminated composite beams is investigated. Application of FGPM transducers for shunted damping increases the reliability of the passive control networks. For shunted damping of vibrations in practical conditions, R-LIIC shunt circuit is the best suitable choice. The damping performance of different shunt circuits increases drastically with the increasing of the material gradient composition of FGPM transducers.
