VIbration Dampening For Horizontal Stabilizers

Systems and methods provide for the mitigation of vibrational forces acting on a horizontal stabilizer of an aircraft. According to one aspect, a damper is coupled to a front portion of a horizontal stabilizer to dampen vibrations in a first degree of freedom, with another damper coupled to a mounti...

Zusammenfassung:	Systems and methods provide for the mitigation of vibrational forces acting on a horizontal stabilizer of an aircraft. According to one aspect, a damper is coupled to a front portion of a horizontal stabilizer to dampen vibrations in a first degree of freedom, with another damper coupled to a mounting point of the horizontal stabilizer to dampen vibrations in a second degree of freedom. The dampers may be passive, operating independently to mitigate vibrational forces, or active, applying a mitigating force to the horizontal stabilizer based on real-time or estimated vibration states.
