One of the most searched for and read topics on the Noise & Vibration Measurement Blog is that of converting between measurements of acceleration, velocity and displacement. To
When 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
From 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
It 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
In many cases only significant events, such as bumps or other transients in a signal are of relevance. The objective is to be able to isolate these events
