Information

This model explores how to minimize vibrations in a diesel engine using a tuned mass damper.

Equation Analysis

Using the Wolfram Language, create an interactive Manipulate analyzing the vibrations of a diesel engine for different damping parameters.

InteractiveManipulate

Simulation Analysis

Simulate the vibrating engine with different damping mass and spring-damper parameters. The Wolfram Language makes it easy to do such simulations in parallel.

In order to get the full experience of this example, you need a desktop Wolfram Language product. A free trial download is available at www.wolfram.com/mathematica/trial/

For the full example, open the accompanying notebook ActiveDamping.nb.
