  2. Tuned mass damper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuned_mass_damper

    The graph shows the effect of a tuned mass damper on a simple spring–mass–damper system, excited by vibrations with an amplitude of one unit of force applied to the main mass, m 1. An important measure of performance is the ratio of the force on the motor mounts to the force vibrating the motor, ⁠ F 0 / F 1 ⁠ .

  3. Shock absorber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_absorber

    A shock absorber or damper is a mechanical or hydraulic device designed to absorb and damp shock impulses. It does this by converting the kinetic energy of the shock into another form of energy (typically heat) which is then dissipated. Most shock absorbers are a form of dashpot (a damper which resists motion via viscous friction).

  4. Air-mixing plenum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air-mixing_plenum

    The mix of fresh air and recirculated air can thus be adjusted to suit the needs of the building's occupants. Most systems will use motorized dampers to control the air mixing, and controlled by the building management system (BMS), or controls system. Typically as the fresh air and exhaust air dampers are driven from 0% open to 100% open, the ...

  5. Dashpot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dashpot

    A less common type of dashpot is an eddy current damper, which uses a large magnet inside a tube constructed of a non-magnetic but conducting material (such as aluminium or copper). Like a common viscous damper, the eddy current damper produces a resistive force proportional to velocity. A common use of the eddy current damper is in balance scales.

  6. Optimal control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimal_control

    Optimal control problem benchmark (Luus) with an integral objective, inequality, and differential constraint. Optimal control theory is a branch of control theory that deals with finding a control for a dynamical system over a period of time such that an objective function is optimized. [1]

  7. M1 Abrams - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M1_Abrams

    The fire control system on the M1 and M1A1 variants is the Computing Devices Canada ballistic computer system. [181] On the M1A2 the Fire Control Electronics Unit is manufactured by GDLS. [ 182 ] The laser designator is a Hughes model.

  8. Fire damper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_damper

    Interior of German mechanical fire damper inside of a galvanised steel duct. Fire dampers (or fire shutters) are passive fire protection products used in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) ducts to prevent and isolate the spread of fire inside the ductwork through fire-resistance rated walls and floors.

  9. Nonlinear control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonlinear_control

    Lur'e problem block diagram. An early nonlinear feedback system analysis problem was formulated by A. I. Lur'e.Control systems described by the Lur'e problem have a forward path that is linear and time-invariant, and a feedback path that contains a memory-less, possibly time-varying, static nonlinearity.
