Abstract

A damping device and a design method provide an active damping for a device in which vibration is to be reduced. The damping device includes vibration detection means for detecting a vibration of the object; vibration generation means for generating a distortion on a portion of the object; control means for controlling the vibration generation means by a signal from the vibration detection means; and signal input and output means for transferring a signal with the control means. A driving force generation signal is received from outside through the signal input and output means, the driving force corresponding to the driving force generation signal is generated by the control means, the selected vibration generation means is driven by the driving force, and vibration state information obtained from the selected vibration detection means is output from the control means to the outside through the signal input and output means.
