Abstract
A new class of adaptive tuned vibration absorber, a variable effective inertia absorber, is presented to impart optimum vibration absorption. The tuning scheme has two facets: spectral analysis of the excitation and a concurrent in situ tuning of the absorber. The spectral analysis reveals the frequency content of the excitation. The online tuning uses the frequency content of the excitation to reposition a moving mass and change the damping coefficient of a variable rate damper for optimal (broadband) or tonal vibration suppression. The nonlinear differential equations of motion are linearized and then utilized to develop the online tonal and the broadband tuning of the variable effective inertia absorber. A case study is presented to demonstrate the novelty of the concept. The results show that the retuned absorber delivers considerable vibration suppression improvement over the detuned one.
