Join Tom Irvine in this shock and vibration webinar as he dives into the practical application of Power Spectral Density (PSD) calculations. Learn how to analyze both measured and synthesized time history data, and discover how PSD is used in real-world engineering scenarios. From white noise analysis to automotive vibration testing, this session is packed with hands-on examples and insights.
🔹 What You’ll Learn:
PSD Calculation Techniques for vibration analysis
White Noise vs. Pink Noise and their spectral characteristics
Automotive Vibration Testing: Analyzing a Taurus automobile’s suspension system
Octave Band Formatting for smoother PSD results
Real-World Applications: From tire imbalance to suspension damping
🔹 Key Tools & Concepts:
Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and its role in PSD calculations
Degrees of Freedom and frequency resolution trade-offs
3dB Bandwidth Method for damping estimation
Critical Thinking Skills for interpreting spectral peaks
