  2. Accelerograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerograph

    An example of an accelerograph array that was established to improve knowledge of near-source earthquake shaking as well as earthquake rupture propagation is the Parkfield Experiment, which involved a massive set of strong motion instrumentation. [4] Within the accelerograph, there is an arrangement of three accelerometer sensing heads

  3. Campbell diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Campbell_diagram

    Campbell Diagram of a steam turbine. Analysis shows that there are well-damped critical speed at lower speed range. Analysis shows that there are well-damped critical speed at lower speed range. Another critical speed at mode 4 is observed at 7810 rpm (130 Hz) in dangerous vicinity of nominal shaft speed, but it has 30% damping - enough to ...

  4. APMonitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APMonitor

    Julia, MATLAB, Python are mathematical programming languages that have APMonitor integration through web-service APIs. The GEKKO Optimization Suite is a recent extension of APMonitor with complete Python integration. The interfaces are built-in optimization toolboxes or modules to both load and process solutions of optimization problems.

  5. Direct stiffness method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_stiffness_method

    The first step in this process is to convert the stiffness relations for the individual elements into a global system for the entire structure. In the case of a truss element, the global form of the stiffness method depends on the angle of the element with respect to the global coordinate system (This system is usually the traditional Cartesian ...

  6. IDEF1X - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDEF1X

    Example of an IDEF1X diagram. Integration DEFinition for information modeling (IDEF1X) is a data modeling language for the development of semantic data models.IDEF1X is used to produce a graphical information model which represents the structure and semantics of information within an environment or system.

  7. Piezoelectric accelerometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezoelectric_accelerometer

    A description of how a piezoelectric accelerometer works in theory. A piezoelectric accelerometer is an accelerometer that employs the piezoelectric effect of certain materials to measure dynamic changes in mechanical variables (e.g., acceleration, vibration, and mechanical shock).

  8. Inertial measurement unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_measurement_unit

    For example, if an IMU installed in an aeroplane moving along a certain direction vector were to measure a plane's acceleration as 5 m/s 2 for 1 second, then after that 1 second the guidance computer would deduce that the plane must be traveling at 5 m/s and must be 2.5 m from its initial position (assuming v 0 =0 and known starting position ...

  9. Jerk (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerk_(physics)

    This example neglects the effects of tire sliding, suspension dipping, real deflection of all ideally rigid mechanisms, etc. Another example of significant jerk, analogous to the first example, is the cutting of a rope with a particle on its end. Assume the particle is oscillating in a circular path with non-zero centripetal acceleration.
