Abstract:
An improved vibration control actuation system for a rotary-wing aircraft having a plurality of rotor blades mounted to a rotor hub and driven about a central axis of rotation at an operational speed and in a rotational direction relative to a non-rotating body of the aircraft comprising a vibration control frame adapted to be mounted to the hub and to rotate relative to the hub about the central axis in a rotational direction opposite to the rotational direction of the hub, a frame motor configured to rotate the frame about the central axis, the frame supporting first and second motors configured to rotate first and second masses about first and second axes not concentric with the central axis, and a controller for receiving input signals and outputting command signals to the first and second motors.
