Basic Terminology of Structural Vibration The term vibration describes repetitive motion that can be measured and observed in a structure. Unwanted vibration can cause fatigue or degrade the performance of the structure. Therefore it is desirable to eliminate or reduce the effects of vibration. In other cases, vibration is unavoidable or even desirable. In this case, the goal may be to understa...

Probabilistic latent component analysis (PLCA) is applied to the problem of gearbox vibration source separation. A model for the probability distribution of gearbox vibration employs a latent variable intended to correspond to a particular vibration source, with the measured vibration at a particular sensor for each source the product of a marginal distribution of vibration by frequency, a marg...

by new advancements in vehicle manufacturing vehicle quality evaluation and assurance has become a more critical issue. in present work, the vibration transfer path analysis and vibration path ranking of a car interior has been performed. the method is similar to classical multilevel tpa methods but has distinct differences. the method is named vivs which stands for vehicle interior vibration s...

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...

introduction: the effect of dust on human health has been confirmed according to the geographical location of iran and the existence of this phenomenon in most provinces, particularly the western and southern provinces. this review discusses the role of proper nutrition in reducing the harmful effects of dust on human health. methods: in this systematic review, the published articles were found...

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...
