Basic Mechanical Interactions in Shaker Testing

Basic Mechanical Interactions in Shaker Testing

Simple models representing a shaker and a test object are used to illustrate changes in test object response due to shaker dynamics and differences between the test and service environment. The degree of coupling is quantified in terms of ratios of the natural frequencies and the masses. Regions of...
