Vibration sensors Vibration is d oscillatory motion of d dynamic system due to sm elasticity n inertia.

Displacement mic, sound, proximity, accelerometer, vibration meter Signal analysis >>oscilloscope>>time domain Spectrum analysis >> frequency domain Modal hammers>>Forced transistorswith diff tips 4 frequencies Vibration exciters>>with amplifiers>>>pulse analyser>>digitizes>display thru software on pc. Failures can be predicted using the info from vibration signal processing________________________________________________________________

n=3N-C >>>n=dof, N=no of particles, C=constraints For 1-D system, x=z=0>>2 constraints
