Abstract

Determining adjustments to decrease vibrations caused by rotating blades from a plurality of rotors includes determining a first plurality of adjustment normalization values for a plurality of possible adjustments of blades of a first one of the plurality of rotors, where the first plurality of adjustment normalization values normalizes different types of adjustments having different units, determining a second plurality of adjustment normalization values for a plurality of possible adjustments of blades of a second one of the plurality of rotors, where the second plurality of adjustment normalization values normalizes different types of adjustments having different units and where, for a particular adjustment type, an adjustment normalization value of the first plurality of adjustment normalization values is independent of a corresponding adjustment normalization value of the second plurality of adjustment normalization values for the particular adjustment type, providing coefficient of vibration data that corresponds to effects on vibration caused by adjustments to the blades, receiving a plurality of vibration values corresponding to vibrations caused by the blades, applying the…
