    Depending on your actuator design, you really can get a 2x frequency
    component of force. With an actuator that works in this way, you'd
    design the drive frequency to be high enough so that the amplitude of
    motion resulting from the force ripple is "small enough," doesn't excite
    structural resonances, and so on.
