  2. Noise and vibration on maritime vessels - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_and_vibration_on...

    These will absorb a part of the vibrations (and the noise) produced by the machines. To control the electromagnetic vibrations at the origin, skewing the electric motor or choosing a better slot/pole combination [3] will reduce electromagnetic force harmonics or avoid resonances between magnetic forces and structural modes of the electric motor.

  3. Noise regulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_regulation

    Chicago, IL {Section 11-4-2805} limits received sound levels to 55 dB(A) inside a residential dwelling unit but if the ambient is greater, the limit is 65 dB(A). If outdoors, the limit is conversational level at 100 feet from the property line. If the building is set back 20 feet from the property line, the allowable level is 84 dB(A)!

  4. Engine balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_balance

    Balance shaft system: 1922 design by the Lanchester Motor Company. In a car, for example, such an engine with cylinders larger than about 500 cc/30 cuin [citation needed] (depending on a variety of factors) requires balance shafts to eliminate undesirable vibration.

  5. Noise, vibration, and harshness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise,_vibration,_and...

    Noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH), also known as noise and vibration (N&V), is the study and modification of the noise and vibration characteristics of vehicles, particularly cars and trucks. While noise and vibration can be readily measured, harshness is a subjective quality, and is measured either via jury evaluations, or with analytical ...

  6. Vibratory stress relief - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibratory_stress_relief

    Figure 2: Reverse ring time, or RRT, is the time period between the start of vibration excitation, and full resonant amplitude. [8] The most frequently used method of finding the resonances of a workpiece during vibratory stress relief is to scan through the vibrator speed range, and record / plot the vibration amplitude vs. the vibrator speed.

  7. Torsional vibration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsional_vibration

    Torsional vibration is a concern in the crankshafts of internal combustion engines because it could break the crankshaft itself; shear-off the flywheel; or cause driven belts, gears and attached components to fail, especially when the frequency of the vibration matches the torsional resonant frequency of the crankshaft. Causes of the torsional ...

  8. Control of Vibration at Work Regulations 2005 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_of_Vibration_at...

    The regulations require employers to identify which of their employees may be at risk from hand arm vibration (HAV) dissorders or whole-body vibration (WBV) disorders. [3] Hand arm vibration disorders can be caused by the use of hand-held power tools and can cause painful and disabling disorders of the blood vessels, nerves and joints. [4]

  9. Rotordynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotordynamics

    Rotating machinery produces vibrations depending upon the structure of the mechanism involved in the process. Any faults in the machine can increase or excite the vibration signatures. Vibration behavior of the machine due to imbalance is one of the main aspects of rotating machinery which must be studied in detail and considered while designing.
