Apparatus and method for tuning a vibratory response of a rotor blade

摘要

A method and apparatus for reducing a vibratory response in a structure using a tuning object. A selected mass may be identified for the tuning object. A plurality of channels may be formed in a workpiece having a mass greater than the selected mass to form the tuning object having the selected mass. The tuning object may be bonded to the structure using an adhesive bond to reduce the vibratory response of the structure.
