Abstract
A strut for mounting an engine in an aircraft includes a first member and a second member. A friction material is coupled to a surface of the first member and is positioned between the first member and the second member. At least one attachment couples the first member, the second member, and the friction material. A biasing mechanism is associated with the at least one attachment. A biasing force of the biasing mechanism biases the second member into engagement with the frictional material to create a static frictional load between the first member and the second member.
