Active Balancing and Vibration Control of Rotating Machinery: A Survey

Vibration suppression of rotating machinery is an important engineering problem. In this paper, a review of the research work performed in real-time active balanc- ing and active vibration control for rotating machinery, as well as the research work on dynamic modeling and analy- sis techniques of rotor systems, is presented. The basic methodology and a brief assessment of major difficulties and future research needs are also provided.
