Abstract: The paper concerns the elimination of vibration due to changing the centre of gravity of a system. It is shown that the damping effect can be generated in an oscillating pendulum by a continuous motion of an auxiliary mass. A simple system in form of a variable length pendulum is considered. It is seen that if the pendulum length function is correctly chosen, the Coriolis force will cause additional damping effect in the system. The Floquet method is used to investigate the linear system stability. (© 2008 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
