New algorithm can help machines avoid damage or malfunctions from resonant frequencies

This month, Samsung recalled 2.8 million top-loading washing machines due to excessive vibrations that could cause the top to break off—a problem that led to at least nine reported injuries. The vibrations happen when the normal oscillations of the washing machine become trapped in resonance, causing it to shake harder and harder at the resonant frequency.
