Question
An electric motor with a mass of 260 kg and a rotating
unbalance, is mounted near the end of a steel cantilever
beam. The beam is observed to vibrate violently at the
operating speed of 1200 rev/min of the motor. It is proposed
to add a vibration absorber underneath the beam to reduce
the vibration. It is intended to have the lower frequency of
the combined system equal to 80 % of the operating speed of
the motor.
Determine the ratio of the absorber mass to the mass of the
(а)
motor.
Find the mass and stiffness of the vibration absorber.
