Finite element method (FEM) is based on the idea of building a complicated structural object with simple element , or dividing a complicated structural object into small and manageable pieces (like a puzzle). The application of finite element can be found everywhere in everyday life, as well as in engineering. if you remember when you was... Continue Reading →
High Rise Building Vibration
Some of the causes of vibration that occurs in tall buildings. problems that most of us know is a vibration in buildings due to earthquake. but there are other causes that led to the building vibrate faster, this is caused by wind loads acting on the surface of the building.harmonic load due to wind can cause buildings to vibrate at a level of discomfort for the occupants of the building. many factors that affect the wind loading on tall buildings,including the shape of the building, the area where the building is in, and climate around the building. while the factors that affect a large vibration that occurs in the building except for the...

Vibration Measurement setup for Modal Testing
Soft suspense Soft suspense Charge & Conditioning amplifier for shaker Charge & Conditioning amplifier for accelerometer Shaker MSA/DSA Computer Accelerometer Power Amplifier SG : Signal generator LC : load cell This setup is to measure Point FRF (Frequency Response Function) . The excitation force provided by shaker and measured by a load cell that exist in the shaker and the vibration response will be read by the accelerometer (accelerometer sensor is used as to result in inertance and an...
