Fundamentals of vibration testing

Goals

formation-objectifs-seointro Fundamentals of vibration testing :

- Raise participants' awareness of realistic and relevant perceptions of different physical orders of magnitude
- Conduct and analyse a test campaign
- Optimise test definition and execution
The aim of the training is to:
- Know how to use physical quantities in the mechanical environment of a structure
- Determine the measurement and test methods according to the programme
- Understand the requirements of test standards
- Participate in the performance of mechanical tests
- Analyse test results

Program

1/ Clarify the fundamentals

Revisit physical quantities and their reality

Review the objectives and parameters used for different types of vibrations: sinusoidal, random, shock, combined, SRC



2/ Identify the right test methods

Interpret the capabilities and performance of the various electrodynamic, electro-hydraulic, shock machines and control systems

Select measurement sensors and their locations

Use appropriate signal processing



3/ Monitor and analyse a test campaign

Define test assembly requirements

Choose the control strategy: basic principles, multipoint strategy and notching

Analyse measurement results based on practical cases



4/ Write a test procedure

Understand the rationale behind the key points of the content

Integrate the constraints and freedoms concerning the order in which the tests are carried out

Carry out a practical application and evaluate your points for attention
