Zusammenfassung:This invention relates to a method of balancing a rotating mass mounted on a compliant axis. This method uses acceleration vector information, extracted only from points on said mass while in motion, to determine the relocation of movable weights mounted on said mass. The shifting of these weights causes the center of gravity to coincide with the intended center of rotation which, in turn, causes the mass to be dynamically balanced.
