Self-turning compact vibration damper
Systems, methods, and devices of the various embodiments provide a compact vibration damper configured to be remotely-tunable and/or self-tuning. In various embodiments, a flywheel may be coupled to a shaft that spins a rotary damper. A linear actuator may operate a scissor assembly that moves the flywheel thereby changing the mass moment of inertia of the spinning flywheel without changing the actual mass of the flywheel. The linear actuator may move the scissor assembly and flywheel to tune the compact vibration damper. In additional embodiments, opposing rotary springs may be coupled to the shaft that spins the rotary damper.
