Comfort, reliability, functionality performance which provide a longer life cycle requires thourogh understanding and analysis of the vibrations, this is a general rule for most of the static and dynamic when studying the functionality performance of any application. Vibrations is an extremely important issue to consider when designing various systems.The hysteresis in the dampers is very impor...

Abstract The paper considers the effect of low-amplitude acoustic oscillations on temperature field in flame formed during combustion kerosene gasoline. As a result using IRT-method, sets thermograms process were obtained. For obtained thermograms, distribution high-temperature inhomogeneities plume was analyzed. result, it that causes change height plume, rate. When analyzing spectra changes, ...

Mechanical vibration has been used in sports training to increase strength performance and as preventive treatment for such diseases as osteoporosis and Parkinson’s disease. The use of vibration is based on fact that exposure of skeletal muscular system to mechanical vibrations may create a muscle contraction reflex called tonical vibration reflex (TVR). The aim of the present study was to veri...

This paper presents an ultrasound piezoceramic transducer, centred into an extracorporeal shock wave lithotriptor system. The electromagnetic acoustic source lithotriptor initiates the incident shock waves into the water, and the ultrasound transducer improves the caviational effects of the bubbles. The piezoelectric transducer is powered by a Function/Pulse Generator type IWATSU SG-4511, and c...

The remarkable power amplifier [1] of the cochlea boosts low-level and compresses high-level vibrations of the basilar membrane (BM) [2]. By contributing maximally at the characteristic frequency (CF) of each point along its length, the amplifier ensures the exquisite sensitivity, narrow frequency tuning, and enormous dynamic range of the mammalian cochlea. The motor protein prestin in the oute...

We show that it is possible to detect mechanical bending modes on 1μm long ropes of single walled-carbon nanotubes suspended between 2 metallic contacts. This is done by measuring either their dc resistance in a region of strong temperature dependence (in the vicinity of superconducting or metalinsulator transition), or their critical current. The vibrations are excited by a radio-frequency ele...

Resonant electromagnetic actuators have been broadly used as vibration motors for mobile devices given their ability of generating relatively fast, strong, and controllable vibration force at a given resonant frequency. Mechanism of the actuators that is based on mechanical resonance, however, limits their use to a situation where their resonant frequencies are known and unshifted. In reality, ...
