A key element of the new product development cycle for companies in the automotive, military, medical device, and electronics industries is shock and mechanical vibration testing. For unbiased ...

It’s easy to take for granted equipment that runs smoothly and is comfortable to operate. However, a great deal of research and testing goes into optimizing the vibration of an engine. Advancements in ...

Shock and vibration testing systems have been developed in order to understand the ability of electronic equipment to respond to the effects of environmental stresses. These testing systems are force ...

Jet engine vibration is arguably the worst enemy of a typical aircraft maintenance team. Parts which are out of balance can eventually result in a cracked turbine, fan, and compressor components, as ...

Vibration testing helps to predict how well a product will withstand its intended service or transportation environment. Some new vibration controllers have the capability to replicate data recorded ...

Aircraft structures are prone to vibrations due to their lightweight construction. In most cases, these vibrations are not critical. They decay due to damping effects from aerodynamic forces and ...

At the DLR Institute of Aeroelasticity in Göttingen, researchers are investigating the structural dynamic behaviour of aircraft, rotorcraft and wind turbines by means of vibration testing. The Ground ...

The principal vibration testing capabilities which are in common use today largely evolved from the early requirements of the aerospace industry. Standard test protocols, random vibration, single axis ...
