Vibration dampening is a term used in ergonomic, industrial, and electrical applications to minimize the system’s kinetic energy. When vibration is attenuated, energy is delivered to the proper routes and noise propagation is diminished. The moment of the propeller and engine causes a drone to vibrate, with added complexity for drones because they are designed to have constant and carry fragile electronics. Investigating the uses of vibrational dampers and shock absorbers in UAVs utilizing several case studies based on material analysis, and different approaches. This report will assist us in reviewing previous research in this topic. In addition, the material properties of composite materials and shape memory alloys are being compared. Shape memory alloys have elastic characteristics and can restore their original shape.
