Providing Vibration & Fatigue Solutions on Equipment
Vibration, seismic, shock, and fatigue troubleshooting, testing & analysis services on equipment. Should issues arise, we design solutions – ensuring structural integrity, minimizing risk, and controlling costs for owners/users.
Most equipment vibration problems are due to thermal, mechanical, acoustic, or flow-related excitation – and if left unchecked, will cause fatigue and subsequent equipment failure, which may lead to greater repair costs.
Components vibrate at particular natural frequencies. These frequencies and resulting mode shapes can be found using modal and vibration analysis. Often, a simple analysis can be performed, while for more complex systems, finite element analysis is performed to determine the dynamic response.
