A support damper (128) is provided for a bearing assembly (126) to improve the damping capabilities of an uncentered squeeze film damper and to provide a support structure stiffness to minimize rotor to structure unbalance response. In one embodiment, and by way of example only, the support damper includes an inner ring (140), an outer ring (142), and U-shaped beams (144). The inner ring (140) is configured to be disposed around the bearing assembly (126) and to extend axially along a portion thereof. The outer ring (142) is spaced apart from the inner ring (140) and extends radially outwardly relative thereto. The U-shaped beams (144) couple the inner ring (140) to the outer ring (142). Methods of manufacturing the support damper are also provided.
