ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for controlling lateral vibration in a rotating shaft, wherein the lateral vibration is controlled through the disposition of a mass having a predetermined weight in combination with the rotating shaft such that the first order critical frequency of the shaft is decreased below an operating frequency range for the rotating shaft. The mass is disposed in combination with the shaft at a second order critical frequency node such that the disposition of the mass does not decrease the second order critical frequency.
