Abstract
This paper deals with finding the optimum parameters of a damped dynamic vibration absorber (DVA) to control chatter
in metal cutting systems. The performance of conventional damped DVA is compared with the proposed skyhook
damper in which the damper of the absorber system is connected between the absorber mass and an inertial reference
in the sky, referred to as a skyhook damper. The damped DVA is optimized by reducing the magnitude in the positive side
and increasing it in the negative side of the real part of the frequency response function of the main system. The optimum
frequency ratio and the damping ratio of the damped DVA for the undamped and damped main system are obtained using
analytical solutions and a numerical optimisation technique, viz genetic algorithm, respectively. The performance of the
proposed skyhook damper is marginally better than the conventional type of damped DVA in controlling the vibration
of the main system. This is verified by analyzing both the proposed and conventional models using finite element
method-based commercial software ANSYS.

1. Introduction
Chatter in machining processes is a relative vibration
between the cutting tool and the workpiece that causes
several adverse effects such as poor surface finish,
dimensional inaccuracy, tool wear and unacceptable
noise. Tobias (1965), Merritt (1965), and Altintas
(2000) have done several studies on regenerative chatter
and prediction of stability limits of various machining
processes. Various methods have been proposed over
the years for preventing chatter in the machining pro-
cess, using passive and active vibration control tech-
niques. Rivin and Kang (1992) proposed a method to
improve the dynamic stability of a boring bar using
DVA. They found optimum tuning ratio of DVA by
applying Routh stability criterion for the characteristic
equation of a two-degree-of-freedom (DOF) lumped
parameter model of a boring bar with DVA. Tewani
et al. (1995) described the use of an active dynamic
vibration absorber to control chatter in a boring bar.
Improvement of stability boundaries for a chatter-free
cutting operation of a boring bar with a passive tuned
mass damper and a boring bar with active dynamic
absorber were compared. Tarng et al. (2000)
reduce the magnitude of the frequency response func-
tion (FRF) of the cutting tool and the vibrations can be
suppressed effectively in the cutting process when the
dynamic vibration absorber is attached to the cutting
tool. A piezo inertia actuator was used for the suppres-
sion of chatter in turning operations. Moradi et al.
(2008) found optimum specifications of a tunable vibra-
tion absorber based on the mode summation method
for chatter control in a boring manufacturing process.
Chung et al. (1997) proposed an active vibration con-
trol damper to reduce the size of the negative real part
of the structural modes in order to improve the stability
of a high speed machine tool. Pratt and Nayfeh (2001)

demonstrated the simple feedback on the parameter
space of chatter-free machining in a boring process
using theory and experiment. They also showed that
active control of tool damping in each of the principal
modal directions led to quite effective chatter suppres-
sion. Koo and Ahmadian (2002) investigated the
dynamic characteristics of semi-active ground hook
tuned vibration absorbers and the results were com-
pared with those of passive tuned vibration absorbers.
Mei (2005) designed an active feedback wave controller
to absorb chatter vibration energy in a broad frequency
band to improve machining performance of a boring
process by considering a real distributed cutting system
model. Ganguli et al. (2006) constructed a two-DOF
mechatronics simulator to propose active damping as
a strategy for control of chatter during milling oper-
ations. They used the active vibration control to stabil-
ize all kinds of milling operations by raising the
stability limit. Ganguli et al. (2007) demonstrated the
effect of active damping on regenerative chatter
instability for a turning operation and it was proved
that active damping can successfully enhance the sta-
bility limits. Huyanan and Sims (2007) compared the
performance of passive and active vibration absorber
control using root locus technique and it was concluded
that the virtual passive absorber control is easier to
implement than the virtual skyhook damping for the
improvement of machining stability. Sims (2007) devel-
oped a vibration absorber tuning solution to control
machine tool chatter. It was proved that the tuning
methodology based on optimizing the real part of
FRF considerably improves the machining stability.
Liu and Liu (2005) compared Den Hartog’s (1985)
method of finding optimum tuning parameters of con-
ventional damped DVA and a skyhook damper with
that of Brock’s method. To find the optimum tuning
parameters of the skyhook damper, Liu and Coppola
(2010) used the equal peaks tuning method, which may
not be useful in metal cutting applications. The main
objective of this work is to find the optimum tuning
parameters of the skyhook damper by optimizing the
real part of the FRF of the main system and compare
its performance with that of conventional damped
DVA. In this paper, the optimum parameters of a sky-
hook damper are calculated analytically for the
undamped main system and a numerical optimization
technique is used for the damped main system.
2. Theory of regenerative chatter in
machining process
Regenerative chatter is considered to be one of the most
important causes of instability in the cutting process.
The regenerative effect is caused by the superposition of
successive cuts, where the tool removes a wavy surface

generated in the previous pass. The width of cut at the
stability limit based on the regeneration in the machin-
ing process can be expressed using the equation, as sug-
gested by Altintas (2000) alim ¼ 1/2 KfG(o), where alim
is the critical depth of cut, Kf is the cutting constant,
G(o) is the real part of the transfer function of the
metal cutting system and o is the chatter frequency.
According to the equation, it is understood that the
critical depth of cut alim is inversely proportional to
the magnitude of the real part of the FRF of the cutting
tool. So it is necessary to minimize the magnitude of
FRF in order to obtain a larger critical depth of cut
alim. As the real part of FRF affects the machining sta-
bility, the tuning methodologies used to find the opti-
mal parameters of damped dynamic vibration
absorbers are (i) equal peaks of real part tuning and
(ii) equal troughs of real part tuning.
3. Optimization of damped dynamic
vibration absorbers
In this study, the conventional damped DVA shown in
Figure 1 is referred to as Model A and the proposed
skyhook damper shown in Figure 2, as Model B. The
locked points theory that Sims (2007) used to find the
optimum tuning parameters for Model A is applied to
find the optimum tuning parameters of Model B and
the results are compared with that of Model A. The
equation of motion of Model B is given by

To compare the analytical solutions for optimum

tuning ratio of Model B with Model A, the results are
tabulated as shown in Table 2. The variation of opti-
mum tuning parameters of Model A that was found by
Sims (2007) and the proposed Model B for a range of
values of mass ratio m for an undamped system are
shown in Figures 4 and 5. The results show that the
optimum tuning ratios and damping ratios of Model B
are greater than those of Model A. It is shown in sub-
sequent sections that the proposed Model B is more
effective than Model A in controlling the vibration
response of the main system and this result is also sub-
stantiated by doing finite element (FE) vibration ana-
lysis using FE commercial code ANSYS.

4. Numerical optimization using

genetic algorithm
Although the optimum tuning parameters of Model B
for the undamped main system are found using locked
point theory, the same theory cannot be extended to the
damped main system; hence a numerical optimization
technique is used. To obtain the optimum frequency
ratio and optimum damping ratio of Model B for the
damped main system, a numerical optimization tech-
nique, namely a genetic algorithm (GA) is employed.
Genetic algorithm is an optimization algorithm based
on the mechanics of natural genetics and natural selec-
tion. GA operates on a population of potential solu-
tions by applying the principle of the ‘‘survival of the
fittest’’ to produce successively better approximations
to a solution. GA is a kind of adaptive stochastic search
and optimization algorithm based on fundamental evo-
lutionary processes such as selection, crossover and
mutation. This algorithm simulates the natural selec-
tion, crossover and mutation through numerical

part tuning).
techniques in a probabilistic manner. The optimization
is carried out by means of a GA implemented in
MATLAB. The real part of FRF, equation (3), is the
objective function, which is to be optimized to find the
optimum tuning parameters of Model B. The optimiza-
tion of the two design variables, namely frequency ratio
and damping ratio, is done by maximizing the negative
real part of FRF which has proved to be critical (Sims,
2007) in improving the machining stability. The results
of numerical optimization for a range of values of mass
ratio for various main system damping ratios are shown
in Figure 6. The results show that optimum tuning
ratios of Model B are greater than those of Model A,
which is similar to the results obtained for an
undamped main system. To compare the effectiveness

of the various optimum tuning methodologies, the
response of the main system G() is plotted for various
values of non-dimensional frequency . The results for
the mass ratio  ¼ 0.01 and  ¼ 0.05 are shown in
Figure 7, for the undamped main system. The non-
dimensional response of the main system is reduced
by 2% for lower mass ratio and by 5% for higher
mass ratio, when the skyhook damper (Model B) is
used. The results show that the skyhook damper is
more effective than conventional damped DVA in
improving machining stability. Similar results can also
be seen in the case of the damped main system that is
shown in Figure 8.
5. Finite element vibration analysis
of boring bar with absorber
An equivalent lumped mass model of a boring bar is
considered as the main system to predict the vibration
control capabilities of both conventional damped DVA
and a skyhook damper. First, the bending mode of the
boring bar is selected as the target mode to be damped.
The frequency of the first bending mode is discovered
using the bandwidth method. The experimental setup,
used to measure the natural frequency of the boring bar
shown in Figure 9, consists of an accelerometer, Photon
data acquisition system and a Dytran impulse hammer.

The boring bar was excited using the impulse
hammer, and the resultant amplitude was measured
using the accelerometer. The data acquisition system
gathered the data and RT Pro software was used to
calculate the FRF, which is shown in Figure 10.
Having found the natural frequency of the boring
bar, the harmonic analysis of a two-DOF model of a
boring bar with damped dynamic vibration absorbers
(Model A and B) is done using ANSYS. Harmonic
analysis is used to find the FRF of a vibrating
system, which is required to assess the performance of
the proposed skyhook damper. Various parameters of
the boring bar and the two types of damped dynamic
vibration absorbers, used in the harmonic analysis, are

given in Table 3. A finite element model of the two-
DOF system shown in Figure 11, is created using
COMBIN–14, a spring damper element and a MASS-
21 element. The COMBIN-14 is a two-noded longitu-
dinal spring damper element. It has three DOF at each
node: translation in the nodal x, y, and z coordinate
directions. This element can be used to model both the
conventional damped DVA and the skyhook damper as
it is possible to remove the spring or damping capabil-
ities from it. MASS-21 is a single-noded lumped mass
element with six DOF: translations in the nodal x, y,
and z coordinate directions and rotations about the
nodal x, y, and z axes. To analyze the vibration
response of the two-DOF model of the boring bar
and damped DVA, only the translation in the nodal y
coordinate direction of both the elements is used.
As harmonic analysis requires a range of forcing
frequencies that depend on the resulting two new nat-
ural frequencies with attachment of damped DVA to
the boring bar, modal analysis is done to find these two
new natural frequencies. From the results of the modal
analysis shown in Table 4, the forcing frequency range
is chosen to be from 400 to 750 Hz, within which the
harmonic load is applied on the system. The real part of
the FRF of the main system, which gives the values of
amplitude at various forcing frequencies, is found using
harmonic analysis.
The results of harmonic analysis are shown in
Figures 12 and 13, for two different mass ratios, viz

The results indicate that amplitude of the main
system is reduced by 2% for lower mass ratio
( ¼ 0.01) and by 5% for higher mass ratio
( ¼ 0.05), when the skyhook damper (Model B) is
used. From the results, it is proved that Model B,
which is designed based on equal trough and equal
peak of real part tuning, performs better than Model
A with the same tuning methodologies in controlling
amplitude. Similar results are obtained in the case of
the classical tuning methodologies suggested by Den
Hartog (1985) for Model A and Liu and Coppola
(2010) for Model B. Hence Model B is more suited
than Model A for chatter control.
6. Conclusion
In this work, the effectiveness of the proposed skyhook
damper and the conventional passive damped dynamic
vibration absorber is studied by theoretically applying
the two types of vibration absorber to a boring bar.
Optimum parameters of damped DVAs are obtained
by optimizing the real part of the FRF of the main
system. Though the skyhook damper requires a larger
amount of damping ratio, the ANSYS results show that
the response of the main system is slightly lower with
the attachment of the skyhook damper than with the
conventional damped DVA. The results indicate that
the skyhook damper will be a better alternative for
the conventional damped DVA in controlling machine
tool vibrations.
