Abstract
A new tuned vibration absorber (TVA) based on one degree-of-freedom (1DOF) of translational motion is proposed. The absorber mass takes the shape of a tank filled with fluid. This device is attached to the fluid circulating system which plays a role in changing the absorber mass. It fills the tank or drains it depending on the data received from the frequency force sensor. The type of TVA used is similar to the simple damped TVA. A numerical procedure is used to test the TVA and compare the performance with the other TVAs. This method is simple to carry out the performance of the TVA as it is adequate for real-life problems.
