Abstract: Eddy current dampers are promising for the passive and semiactive vibration control of mechanical structures. Among them, the “motional” types are based on Lorentz forces between a moving conductor ...

Abstract: The aim of this paper is to investigate the potential of a self-sensing strategy in the case of an electromagnetic damper for the vibration control of flexible structures and rotors. The study ...

Abstract: The vibration control of rotors for gas or steam turbines is usually performed using passive dampers when hydrodynamic bearings are not used. In layouts where the rotating parts are supported ...
