A new passive rolling-pendulum vibration absorber using a non-axial-symmetrical guide to achieve bidirectional tuning.

A new, passive, vibroprotective device of the rolling-pendulum tuned mass damper type is presented that, relying on a proper three-dimensional guiding surface, can simultaneously control the response of the supporting structure in two mutually orthogonal horizontal directions. Unlike existing exampl...
