Abstract

A vibration attenuator has a first spinner configured for rotation about a first axis and a first mass coupled to the first spinner for rotation therewith, the first mass being movable radially relative to the first axis between an inner position and an outer position. An actuator is coupled to the first mass for selectively controlling a radial location of the first mass relative to the axis, and a first motor is configured for driving the first spinner in rotation about the first axis.
