ABSTRACT Finding the Force going in to the system has been the concerned topic to many
engineers in all field of engineering since decades. Specifically in the field of Vibration and Control
engineering, finding the excitation force going in to the system is very important and has been the
concern of many engineers because it is then used to design the control equipment which reduces the
vibration like ‘Anti Vibration Mounts’. In this paper our main aim is to find the excitation force
produced by the crusher machine installed on the floor slab of Waste Processing plant. So principally if
we know the mechanical properties of the machine then from the available close formed solutions we
can find the excitation force produced by machine (J.P. Den Hartog, 1956). But if the mechanical
properties of the machine is not known then we should find some other technique to know the
excitation force produced by the machine. In the past many researchers have developed some theories
in order to find the excitation going in to the system by knowing the system parameters and response of
the system. These theories are called Force Identification theories. Broadly two kind of theories are
covered in this, (i) Time Domain (ii) Frequency Domain Force Identification. So in this paper we will
go in to details Frequency Domain theory and investigate it for its applicability on the Waste
Processing plant floor slab. Finally by applying this theory we will find the excitation force produced
by the crusher machine.

velocity response at location-1 to perform the
Force Identification. So by integrating and doing
mean correction on measured acceleration
response we will get the velocity response at
location-1 as shown below.
