Abstract

A method for damping torsional oscillations in a drive train component, in particular a gearbox, in particular in a power production plant, includes adjusting a load on the output side in the drive train as a function of a difference between a rotational speed of an input shaft of the drive train component and a rotational speed of an output shaft of the drive train component.
