1. The excitation force needed for the vibration test is calculated by multiplication of total load and max. acceleration:
- For vibration test, there are 4 basic units: forece F(N), acceleration A (m/s2), velocity V(m/s) and displacement D(mmp-p).
| F=ma | F....force (N) |
| m....mass (kg) | |
| a.....acceleration (m/s2) |
2. mass of moving parts
if,
mass of vertical auxiliary table or slip table..................................................... m1
mass of moving coil.....................................................................................m2
mass of connection axis on environmental test chamber...................................m3
mass of fixture............................................................................................m4
mass of sample............................................................................................m5
test acceleration............................................................................................a
then,
the excitation force needed for the test:
F=(m1+m2+m3+m4+m5)a
- 3.Connection of displacement, velocity and acceleration
The equations below hold for sine vibration:
