An assembly is provided for a turbine engine. This turbine engine assembly includes a static structure, a conduit and a bracket. The static structure includes a port. The conduit extends longitudinally through the port. The bracket couples the conduit to the static structure. The bracket includes a first base mount, a second bade mount, a conduit mount, a first damper and a second damper. The first base mount is attached to the static structure. The second base mount is attached to the static structure. The conduit mount is mechanically coupled with the conduit. The first damper is between the first base mount and the conduit mount. The second damper is between the second base mount and the conduit mount.

A bearing configured to actively damp vibration of a shaft in a turbine. In one implementation, the bearing can include actuating members that move in a manner that changes properties of fluid, typically a thin film of lubricant, disposed in the bearing to facilitate rotation of the shaft. These changes effectively manipulate the stiffness and damping of the thin film according to a time periodicity that matches a parametric anti-resonance of the bearing. In turn, the resulting interaction of vibrating modes is favorable to damp vibration amplitudes at critical speeds.

A tuned mass damper for reducing vibration on a component includes a shaft connector member configured to be coupled to the component and a cable termination member. The tuned mass damper also includes at least one cable coupled to the shaft connector member and to the cable termination member such that vibration of the component is transferred to the at least one cable via the shaft connector member and increased or decreased by the at least one cable.

A noise and vibration attenuation panel for a structure within a propulsion system includes a first plurality of unit cells and a first plurality of mass elements disposed within the first plurality of unit cells. The first plurality of unit cells include a first periodic structure having a first unit cell, a second unit cell, a third unit cell, and a fourth unit cell, each of the first unit cell, the second unit cell, the third unit cell and the fourth unit cell including a central body interconnected via a plurality of lateral tubes extending from the central body, the first periodic structure forming a first lateral layer of unit cells. The noise attenuation panel can simultaneously control acoustic waves or energy (i.e., via noise attenuation flow paths) and vibration (i.e., via the mass elements).
