Vibration attenuation by mass redistribution

A nontraditional approach for active structural vibration attenuation was proposed using mass redistribution. The focus was on pendulum structures where the objective was to examine the effectiveness of mass reconfiguration along or within a structure to attenuate its vibrational energy. The mechani...
