The torsional viscous dampers for Caterpillar C10, C12 and C13 engines are direct replacements for the original parts. They are recommended for installation at the 300,000-mile crankshaft vibration ...

The main objective of this project is to develop and test a phased damping device, or “gap damper”, to act alongside a base isolation system for buildings or bridges. The gap damper provides ...

The topic was vibration—the unseen forces going to town inside any engine spinning deep into the rpm stratosphere, and the devices designed to keep those forces in check. First, it’s a damper ...

Obtaining perfect balance is important to your engine's performance. The harmonic balancer reduces torsional vibration of the crankshaft, which is the motion naturally generated during each power ...

An often overlooked source of fatigue — not to mention equipment damage — that’s relatively easily mitigated with routine preventive maintenance is a stressed crankshaft damper, reports Brian LeBarron ...

For 181 Fremont, Arup’s radical move was to do away with plans for a tuned mass damper or a sloshing damper on the skyscraper’s roof—common features in tall towers in the U.S. for reducing the natural ...
