ACCELERATION, VELOCITY & DISPLACEMENT SPECTRA – OMEGA ARITHMETIC

By Dr Colin Mercer, Technical Director, Prosig

Accelerometers 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 potentiometer or LVDT transducers to measure absolute displacement directly as static reference points are available. But on a moving vehicle this is not possible.
