A Self-Tunable Dynamic Vibration Absorber: analysis, modulation and simulation for Parkinsonian tremors

A Self-Tunable Dynamic Vibration Absorber (DVA) is proposed here as an alternative device for Parkinson's Disease's (PD) Tremor suppression. A hydraulic system that enables the DVA's self-tuning using a control law was designed and implemented. Two different configurations for the DVA...
