Automatically Tunable Mass Damper
Abstract: A system and method include with a mass damper for reducing vibrations in a structure or machine. The mass damper includes a frame that is movable linearly along a base, which includes a track gear. A flywheel is in geared engagement with the track gear so as to be rotationally driven as the frame moves linearly relative to the base. A rotation damper is mounted on the frame and is geared engagement with the flywheel, the rotation damper producing a counter-torque against rotation of the flywheel that is proportional to a rotational velocity of the flywheel. The rotation damper has an electrical characteristic that is automatically adjusted to change the counter-torque and tune the mass damper.
