Summary

The system uses a custom-designed multi-axis counterbalance and an analogue implementation of an adaptive feedforward compensator. A non-linearity associated with the counterbalance is modelled, and its effect on the closed-loop system is assessed. In an initial test, the third harmonic of the expander's axial force was cancelled by 22-38 decibels over a wide range of drive frequencies, with little effect on the other harmonics or the lateral vibrations.
