Active and Passive Damping of Vibration for Rotorcraft ApplicationsAdvanced helicopter rotor systems, such as those proposed for military rotorcraft in the near future, are mechanically less complex than traditional rotor systems. This simplification may lead to problems with both air and ground resonance. Damping can be a major stabilizing influence for these conditions, and a method of introducing damping in the flexbeam would allow for greater aeromechanical stability. Distributed and point damping strategies are currently being investigated to this end.
