Mechanical vibration

damping of bending waves by a viscoelastic layer sandwiched under a stiff cover sheet, so the layer works mainly in shear.

In mechanical vibration, constrained layer damping refers to damping of bending waves by a viscoelastic layer sandwiched under a stiff cover sheet, so the layer works mainly in shear. This meaning comes from Kerwin (1959) in The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America.[1]
