Vibration : Measure Acceleration, Velocity or Displacement?
Posted on September 5, 2011 | 3 CommentsWhen using vibration data, especially in conjunction with modelling systems, the measured data is often needed as an acceleration, as a velocity and as a displacement. Sometimes different analysis groups...
Converting Acceleration, Velocity & Displacement
Posted on December 16, 2010 | 9 CommentsFrom time to time I meet engineers who are interested in the conversions between acceleration, velocity and displacement. Often, they have measured acceleration, but are interested in displacement or vice...
Calculating Velocity Or Displacement From Acceleration Time Histories
Posted on October 5, 2007 | 11 CommentsIt is quite straightforward to apply “classical” integration techniques to calculate either a velocity time history from an acceleration time history or the corresponding displacement time history from a velocity...
Acceleration, Velocity & Displacement Spectra – Omega Arithmetic
Posted on December 7, 2006 | 18 CommentsAccelerometers are robust, simple to use and readily available transducers. Measuring velocity and displacement directly is not simple. In a laboratory test rig we could use one of the modern...
