Zusammenfassung:PCT No. PCT/DE90/00192 Sec. 371 Date Nov. 15, 1990 Sec. 102(e) Date Nov. 15, 1990 PCT Filed Mar. 16, 1990 PCT Pub. No. WO90/10926 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 20, 1990.A method and an apparatus are disclosed serving to reduce acoustic emission from submerged submarines in which vibrations from moving mechanical elements within an inner region are transmitted to an outer hull via a vibration transmission path. For decoupling the outer hull as completely as possible from the moving mechanical elements, for example periodically moving nuclear reactor control rods, the vibrations are actively damped. Means are provided for ascertaining the motion of the mechanical elements relative to the outer hull and for superimposing upon said motion of counter-motion of opposite direction.
