Vibration Analysis, Monitoring and Assessment

This workshop is aimed at engineers who are concerned with vibration or structural dynamics, and who would like to characterise vibrating loads and/or structural response to vibration.

It is assumed that attendees have a general understanding of vibration, from either theory or from test.

Workshop topics will include:

• A general refresher of basic frequency analysis
  
  
• Characterising vibration levels; power spectral density and amplitude spectra (frequency resolution, buffers and windows)
  
  
• Characterising time-varying and speed-varying vibration; spectrogram, waterfall and Campbell plots
  
  
• Characterising shock and peak vibration levels
  
  
• Characterising structural response; the frequency response function and the importance of damping
  
  
• Using frequency filters and weighting functions
  
  
• Applications for structural health monitoring, rotating machinery, fatigue of pipelines, human response to vibration
  
  
• A brief demonstration using nCode GlyphWorks software with an opportunity to try the software out first hand
  

The workshop is independent and does not rely on concepts introduced in other workshops.
