Vibration control devices are tools designed to reduce or manage unwanted vibrations in structures and machinery. These devices can be found in various applications, including buildings, bridges, and vehicles, helping to enhance safety and comfort. Common types include dampers, isolators, and vibration absorbers, each serving a specific purpose in minimizing the effects of vibrations. These devices work by absorbing or redirecting energy from vibrations, which can be caused by factors like wind, traffic, or machinery operation. By effectively controlling vibrations, these devices help prolong the lifespan of structures and improve performance, making them essential in engineering and construction.
