Synthesis of vibration systems, having group symmetry or quasi-symmetry, according to the frequency spectrum
Torsional vibration systems, with finite numbers of degrees of freedom are investigated. In designing such systems, it is important to select parameters, so that the frequency spectrum of the natural vibrations is beyond the limits of the resonance danger region. In the case when the system has a large number of degrees of freedom, calculation of its natural frequencies, as well as tuning out the resonance danger zones is laborious. When the system being investigated has one group symmetry or another, solution of the problem mentioned above is facilitated, as a consequence of breaking down the frequency equations into several, which are smaller in size. An algorithm is given for tuning out the natural frequency spectrum from the forbidden region, by means of varying the rigidity of systems having group symmetries or group quasi-symmetries.
