A method is provided including the steps: —first excitation of the object via a multifrequency signal; —detecting a first response signal of the object at one or multiple measuring points at the object; —transforming the first response signal from a time range into a frequency-dependent range; —selecting one or multiple frequencies, based on the frequency-dependent range; —second excitation of the object based on the selected frequencies; —detecting a second response signal of the object at one or multiple measuring points of the object; —ascertaining a mechanical parameter based on the second response signal.

Method and apparatus for determining mechanical parameters by means of mechanical excitations

An arrangement reduces oscillation (vibration) of an oscillatory structure. The arrangement has a structure having at least one mode in at least one direction; and an oscillation-reducing device (vibration-reducing device). The oscillation-reducing devices has a housing formed by or provided on the structure, a cavity, and a body configured for making impact contacts with the housing and disposed in the cavity in such a manner that the body is configured to make impact contacts with the housing at least temporarily for as long as the structure is excited in the at least one mode in the at least on direction.

Arrangement for reducing oscillation

An arrangement reduces oscillation of an oscillatory structure. The arrangement has: a structure having at least one mode in at least one direction; and an oscillation-reducing device. The oscillation-reducing device includes a housing on the structure; a cavity; and a body. The body is configured to make impact contact with a first surface portion and a second surface portion of an inner wall of the housing and disposed is in the cavity such that the body can make impact contact with the first surface portion and the second surface portion of the inner wall of the housing at least temporarily for as long as the structure is excited in the at least one mode in the at least one direction. The first surface portion or the second surface portion of the inner wall of the housing has a curved profile.
