Abstract:The noise generated from an impact forming machine arises mainly from structural vibrations and consequently accurate determination of the modal characteristics of the machine is necessary in order to bring about design modifications with the aim of reducing noise levels. Various methods of dynamic testing are applied to a high speed forming machine structure. It is found that the modes of vibration can be successfully identified by impulse tests, with the force pulse generated either by operation of the machi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
