Which behavior results when a viscous damper overheats?

💡 Explanation

Damping efficiency drops because increased temperature reduces fluid viscosity, altering the rate of energy dissipation via viscous shear forces. Therefore damping is reduced rather than increased; structural rigidity is independent, and resonant frequency will remain unaffected.
