Eliminating Vibrations: Optimizing Mass Dampers with Simulation and Testing

Overview

This webinar will showcase how transient structural analysis and experimental testing optimized a mass damper to reduce vibrations in a robot support beam. Experimental tests revealed a tendency for the beam to vibrate when the mobile robot installed on it was in motion. Through a combined approach of simulations and experimental data, the root cause of the issue was identified, leading to the design of an optimized mass damper. This solution successfully mitigated harmful vibrations, ensuring the stability and performance of the support structure.

Attendees will gain insights into the methodology, from integrating experimental data into simulation workflows to the iterative process of fine-tuning a practical solution. This session is a must for engineers looking to enhance system stability and effectively address vibration-related challenges.
