The successful design of vibration absorber for absorbing the torsional vibration in the rotating machinery depends chiefly on the performance of the absorber. The centrifugal pendulum vibration absorber is a passiveabsorber. This absorber does not have the best efficiency if the disturbancefrequency varies with time. In this thesis, the pendulum with feedbackcontrol is used as a dynamic vibration absorber for the rotating machinery.We will derive the equations of the motion for rotating machinery and theactive pendulum absorber. The dynamics can be analyzed by utilizingthose equations. The nonlinear dynamic response of the rotating machinery and theactive pendulum absorber is analyzed using the method of harmonic balance.Periodic solutions are approximated by the first harmonic of the response and calculated by simulations. The anti-resonance frequency, that theoperating frequency for that which the absorber is tuned, can be found fromthe linearized system. From the analysis, we can obtain the effectfeedback control upon the system and the performance of the active absorber.In this thesis, the nonlinear dynamic analysis and the performance of the active pendulum absorber can help the design of the control algorithm.Experiments are carried out for verifying the analysis.
