Sample text

Acceleration because of the frequency-squared term is quite sensitive to frequency and is used to detect small vibrations in equipment operating at high speeds. The importance of this is that the measurement of one quantity at a given frequency can be used to calculate the other two. For example, using an instrument that measured either displacement, velocity, or acceleration but not frequency, assuming a sinusoidal type of vibration, a rough determination of the frequency could be made if two of the quantities were measured and the frequency calculated.

In this section, transducers for measuring these quantities are described. The vibration measured does not have to be sinusoidal or periodic; it can also be shock or transient or random vibration. Periodic or harmonic motion is used most often, and instrumentation for measuring displacement, velocity, and acceleration are well understood both physically and analytically. In some measurements, such as shock, peak acceleration might be used, and for random motion of the frequency spectrum, mean-square values might be used.

In your fingers with a weight (mass) hanging on the other end of the spring. If you move your hand slowly, the mass moves in phase, a 0◦ phase shift with your hand, which is the driving force. This means that the mass moves in the same direction as your hand. Now move your hand rapidly and you will see that the mass moves in the opposite direction: that is, opposite the driving force or 180◦ out of phase. When you move your hand at the spring–mass natural frequency, the amplitude of the mass gets quite large and is controlled primarily by the damping in the spring.
