ABSTRACT:
A system that facilitates damping of mechanical vibration associated with machinery that is subject to such mechanical vibration. The system comprises machinery with at least one moveable part and a piezoelectric actuator that is selectively applied to the machinery. The piezoelectric actuator receives voltages and is employed to facilitate damping of mechanical vibration associated with the machinery.
