A passive nonlinear absorber for controlling pathological tremors of human arm

Abstract

Patients with Pathological tremor at their upper limbs suffer from the involuntary tremor which prevents them from doing their daily tasks. The available medical treatments for this disease can reduce the symptoms of the tremor for a short period of time, but doesn’t cure the disease. Knowing that used medications and surgical treatments causes severe side effects, some patients reject receiving such treatments. This paper proposed the usage of the nonlinear type of passive mechanical vibrations absorbers to reduce the oscillations in the upper limbs for patients with essential tremor. The nonlinear type of passive absorbers is considered as a new technology in this field, which is expected to compete with the existing devices used to control the tremor
