GMRC Basic Vibration Analysis

Virtual, Instructor-Led

Event Overview

This 2-hour workshop will go over the fundamentals of vibration theory, followed by a discussion on best practices for making vibration measurements. Using this basic theory and measurement techniques, several case histories will be presented and explained to help the attendees understand real-world applications of these principles.

Attendees will receive 2 Professional Development Hours upon completion.

 

Learning Objectives

  • Gain a working knowledge of basic vibration concepts (mass, stiffness, resonance, etc.).
  • Understand measurement procedures that greatly enhance the ability to evaluate vibration issues and communicate results.
  • Combine the knowledge of basic theory and good measurements to improve the real‑world success rate for solving vibration-related problems.

 

Who Should Attend

  • Engine Analysts
  • Mechanics
  • Entry-Level Engineers
