H. Kanki et al., DEVELOPMENT OF CMG ACTIVE VIBRATION CONTROL DEVICE FOR GONDOLA, JSME international journal. Series C, dynamics, control, robotics, design and manufacturing, 37(3), 1994, pp. 468-470
For reduction of the low-cycle vibration of vehicles such as gondolas
which are suspended flexibly, the authors studied the utilization of t
he control moment gyro (CMG) as an active vibration control device. Th
e CMG is a moment generator using the gyroscopic moment effect and it
is applied to attitude control of spacecraft. Particularly in the very
-low-frequency region (less than 1 Hz), it is effective and requires n
o reaction support.
