Abstract

Described are techniques for selecting options used with current sensor data characterizing vibration caused by rotating blades. Sets of other sensor data are evaluated to determine a first of the sets of other sensor data that is a best match for said current sensor data. Each of the sets of other sensor data is associated with one of a plurality of option sets. Each option set includes options used in determining one or more adjustments that may be applied to the blades to reduce vibration. The one or more sets of other sensor data are evaluated to determine a first of the sets of other sensor data that is a best match for said current sensor data. A first of the plurality of option sets associated with said first set of sensor data is used in determining adjustment(s) that may be applied to the blades.
