Simulation and development of linear single-piston balanced compressor in Stirling cryogenic cooler

The linear compressor in a Stirling cooling engine is well known as a source of significant vibration, causing a harmful jitter of equipment, wherein it is employed. Some equipment operates typically in harsh airborne environment, i.e. broadband vibrations, quasi-static accelerations and shocks. Under such excitations, the state-of-the-art approaches to a vibration control, either passive or active, are often failed to meet simultaneously the specified performance, reliability and price.
