background : the application of ventilation systems in industries and workplaces is with the aim of improving environmental conditions for employees. the lack of appropriate ventilation system components design and control methods result in the production of sound and vibration in most components. the purpose of this study was to determine the role of the pad isolator in controlling vibration a...

The purpose of this paper is to clarify the temporary threshold shifts in fingertip vibratory sensation produced by hand-transmitted vibrations that have the same equivalent tool vibration levels according to the JIS B 4900 determination method. The JIS B 4900 standard is based on vibration exposure dose values. Therefore, even though the vibration exposure pattern is varied, the severity of vi...

vibration in the air slide tables of ultra precision machines prevents gaining accuracies within nanometer level. in this work, dissimilar types of internal vibration including small vibrations and pneumatic hammers have been tested and some measures have been offered to reduce their effects. this paper has also proceeded to the vibration tests on the air slide tables built with different numbe...

today there are different vibration isolators used in industries according to the weight and excitation frequency of the machines which have vibration. one of them is air spring which is in two types: convoluted air spring and membrane air spring. convoluted air springs are used to control vibrations in low frequency (usually lower than 10 hz) and the membrane ones are used in high frequency (u...

structural dynamic parameters: natural period, shape modes and damping ratio of vibration, play a decisive role on the seismic behavior of those structures. there are several methods for determining of the structural dynamic parameters, such as: free vibration, ambient vibration and force vibration tests. in this research the structural response of a three-story building (the natural frequencie...

'cercarial dermatitis' also known as swimmers itch (skin allergies) is caused by a trematode parasite, schistosoma which has two hosts - an invertebrate (snail) and a vertebrate (livestock, human being). although the availability of both vector snails and pathogens at the selected site the doon valley in northern india has already been confirmed but there was a hazy picture of the disease, whet...

this paper presents a mathematical model for the vibration analysis of a three-component piezoelectric force sensor. the cubic theory of weakly nonlinear electroelasticity is applied to the model for describing the electromechanical coupling effect in the piezoelectric sensing elements which operate in thickness-shear and thickness-stretch vibration modes. hamilton's principle is used to d...
