  2. Vibration-powered generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibration-powered_generator

    Generally, the coil is made using a diamagnetic material as these materials have weaker interactions with the magnet that would dampen the vibration. The main advantage of this type of generator is that it is able to produce more power than the piezoelectric generators. [1] Electromagnetic based vibration-powered generators have been ...

  3. Q factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_factor

    The Q factor is a parameter that describes the resonance behavior of an underdamped harmonic oscillator (resonator). Sinusoidally driven resonators having higher Q factors resonate with greater amplitudes (at the resonant frequency) but have a smaller range of frequencies around that frequency for which they resonate; the range of frequencies for which the oscillator resonates is called the ...

  4. Rayleigh's quotient in vibrations analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh's_quotient_in...

    The example shows how the Rayleigh's quotient is capable of getting an accurate estimation of the lowest natural frequency. The practice of using the static displacement vector as a trial vector is valid as the static displacement vector tends to resemble the lowest vibration mode.

  5. Transmissibility (vibration) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmissibility_(vibration)

    Transmissibility is the ratio of output to input.. It is defined as the ratio of the force transmitted to the force applied. Transmitted force implies the one which is being transmitted to the foundation or to the body of a particular system.

  6. Extreme response spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme_response_spectrum

    A vibration A is considered as more severe than a vibration B if it produces a highest relative displacement (i.e. a highest stress) on this SDOF system than the vibration B. An ERS is generated from a vibration signal using the following process: 1. Choose a damping ratio for the ERS to be based on; 2.

  7. Dynamic modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_modulus

    Dynamic modulus (sometimes complex modulus [1]) is the ratio of stress to strain under vibratory conditions (calculated from data obtained from either free or forced vibration tests, in shear, compression, or elongation).

  8. Vibration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibration

    Vibration (from Latin vibrāre 'to shake') is a mechanical phenomenon whereby oscillations occur about an equilibrium point.Vibration may be deterministic if the oscillations can be characterised precisely (e.g. the periodic motion of a pendulum), or random if the oscillations can only be analysed statistically (e.g. the movement of a tire on a gravel road).

  9. Piezoelectric accelerometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezoelectric_accelerometer

    The development of the commercial piezoelectric accelerometer came about through a number of attempts to find the most effective method to measure the vibration on large structures such as bridges and on vehicles in motion such as aircraft. One attempt involved using the resistance strain gage as a device to build an accelerometer.
