Thanks for the Memory!
Nov 01, 2009; ... I recently had a pleasant conversation about dynamic instrumentation with one of our contributors, a new engineering professor. I had taken umbrage to a comment made in his otherwise stellar manuscript about the performance of early real-time FFT analyzers and why they processed data as they ...
No phobias around this Spider!
Nov 01, 2009; ... A new breed of spider is on the loose, but it's not the kind conjures up fear and loathing. Crystal Instrument Corporation's new Spider-80 is a highly scalable networkbased dynamic measurement system that can measure up to 1024 dynamic input channels with full data recording capability. It is ...
Solutions-Based Approach for Reducing Noise in Washing Machines
Nov 01, 2009; ... A washing machine has more potential noise sources compared to other large household appliances. This is due in part to the presence of complex dynamic assemblies and subsystems confined to fit within a tight design space. Due to varied governmental standards worldwide, increased washing machine ...
Footfall Vibration and Finite Element Analysis
Nov 01, 2009; ... With more efficient design utilizing stronger materials leading to lighter structures, the problem of human-induced vibrations on floors is increasing. Conventional methods of predicting floor accelerations are only suitable for a narrow range of floor layouts and materials. Originally developed ...
