The paper focuses on spring mass system that lessens or eliminates vibrations, known as dynamic vibration absorber (DVA) or vibration neutralizer. A common component of passive vibration control systems in structures and machines is the DVA, which is simply the coupling of an appropriately constructed auxiliary spring mass system—also referred to as a vibration absorber to the primary system. The undamped DVA is ideal for machines with consistent speeds since it is very effective at a single speed. By connecting the spring mass system (absorber) to the main system, it is able to lessen or completely remove system vibrations. The motion of the main mass is reduced to zero at its resonance frequency when an absorbing mass spring system is connected to it, and the absorber’s resonance is adjusted to match that of the main mass. Therefore, it appears that the adjusted dynamic absorber absorbs the energy of the main mass. The developed system is verified by minimizing or getting rid of the main system’s vibrations for a single speed.
Mechanical systems such as engines, rotating machinery, and structural components are often subjected to harmonic excitations that cause excessive vibrations.
