Vibration problems in rotors can be extremely frustrating and may lead to greatly reduced reliability. By utilizing the proper data collection and analysis techniques, the faults because of vibration can be discovered and predicted. The signal analysis is important in extracting fault characteristics in fault diagnosis of machinery. The traditional signal analysis can not settle for non-station...

Oscillators operating in field applications are subject to much more strenuous environmental effects than those in the laboratory. These environmental effects, such as vibration and temperature fluctuation, have a great impact on the performance of the oscillators; however, many applications require this laboratory-level performance in situ. Opto-electronic oscillators (OEOs) have emerged in re...

In this paper, we describe the influence of vibratory adaptation on vibration perception and its correction method. Vibration strength after change depends on the vibration frequency before change even if the vibration frequency itself does not change. We found that the higher the vibration frequency before change, the weaker the perceived vibration strength. To correct this perception gap, the...

we report in this paper the development of a spectral-domain optical coherence vibration tomography (OCVT) using a broadband CCD-based spectrometer and a shortcoherence white light source. We demonstrate that both the vibration amplitude and frequency can be quantified, in the frequency range of 0–250 Hz, with an axial resolution of 1 m. Furthermore, the inner structure (layer thickness) of a ...

In this study, the vibration behavior of circular and annular graphene sheet embedded in a Visco-Pasternak foundation and coupled with temperature change and under in-plane pre-load is studied. The single-layered annular graphene sheet is coupled by an enclosing viscoelastic medium which is simulated as a Visco- Pasternak foundation. By using the nonlocal elasticity theory and classical plate t...
