4. Vibration
Oscillatory motion of a mechanical component due to interplay of kinetic and potential energies.
Harmonic Wave
x(t) = X sin (?t)
5. Harmonic wave x = X sin ? t
xo = ? X cos ? t
xoo = - ? 2 X sin ? t
Condition for Harmonic Motion
xoo = - ? 2 x

24. Vibration Measurement Unit of Vibration
Displacement (amplitude=X) mm
Mostly peak-peak
Velocity V = 2*?*f*X
Amplitude (V) mm/sec or m/s
Acceleration A = 4* ?2*f2*X
Measured as peak value m/s2 or ‘g’ (=9.81m/s2)
25. Vibration Sensors Accelerometer
Velocity Probe
Laser Doppler Vibrometer
Other Transducers such as Strain Guage, LVDT etc.
27. Velocity Probes Comparatively Heavy
Good Velocity Response in Medium frequency range (20-100 Hz)
Common in Power Plant monitoring
Relatively Cheaper electronics and hence lower overall cost
29. Laser Doppler Vibrometer Non-contact Measurement
Very Good Frequency response up-to 100 MHz (only limited by electronics )
Costly
Currently becoming popular for Automated Measurements and Scanning
31. Vibration Exciter- Various Types Mechanical Exciter
Electro-dynamic
Electro-Hydraulic
Non-Contact Type (Electro-Magnetic)
Electrodynamic exciter is the most popular and versatile
34. Electrodynamic Exciter- Important Specifications Frequency Range
Dynamic Force Rating
Maximum Pay load

49. Frequency Response Function FRF is a transfer function between the response of structure measured at some point I and force applied at some point J
?ij= FFT of (x(t) at point I) / FFT of f(t) at point J
FRF gives accurate picture of resonances of the structure
51. Frequency Response Function Frequency response function when found at different point can be combined to get the different mode shapes of the structure and their corresponding modal properties
This very important procedure in vibration testing is called MODAL TESTING
52. Use Modal Exciter Cross stiffness to be very low for determining the FRF
Moving mass should be minimum
fs=fe - M xoo
Use a stringer. Thin rod which is much less stiff in cross direction
