Currently, the interest in monitoring the vibration of dynamical systems has been increasing. For example, large and complex air and space structures include vibration monitoring systems to forecast sudden failures. Such vibration monitoring is used to diagnose structural health by analyzing vibration characteristics (such as frequency and amplitude). Among the vibration characteristics used, t...

The hydropower generating units’ vibration parameter is an important indicator to monitor its rollstabilization. To measure the low-frequency vibration of the large and middle scale of hydropower generating units, according to frequency characteristic compensation principle of the vibration sensor, a low-frequency compensating circuit was designed to extend the frequency characteristic to the l...

A finite element model was developed to simulate the vibratory stress relief after welding. Both resonant and nonresonant vibrations can relieve residual stresses in welded structures by creating plastic deformation around the weld area. For the non-resonant vibration, the stress reduction strongly depends on the vibration amplitude. For the resonant vibration, the vibration frequency is the ke...

Body lean response to bilateral vibrations of soleus muscles were investigated in order to understand the influence of proprioceptive input from lower leg in human stance control. Proprioceptive stimulation was applied to 17 healthy subjects by two vibrators placed on the soleus muscles. Frequency and amplitude of vibration were 60 Hz and 1 mm, respectively. Vibration was applied after a 30 s o...

the present paper investigates the potential application of graphene sheets with attached nanoparticles as resonant sensors by introducing a nonlocal shear deformation plate model. to take into account an elastic connection between the nanoplate and the attached nanoparticle, the nanoparticle is considered as a mass-spring system. then, a combination of pseudo-spectral and integral quadrature m...
