What’s Shakin: Vibration Fundamentals and Human Perception
April 27 @ 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm
About the Talk
The Vibration science is discussed with a view toward human comfort in this presentation. Isolation theory including isolation efficiency, damping, and harmonics are explored as well as the distinction between controlling vibration for equipment life vs human comfort. This presentation will cover:
- Understanding how vibration isolators work regarding isolation efficiency and damping.
- Learn how deflection and isolator frequency response are related.
- Discover how humans respond to building vibration. 4. Look at the criteria used for both human comfort and long machinery life
