EXPERIMENTAL ANALYSIS OF THE DYNAMIC BEHAVIOR OF A MECHANICAL STRUCTURE. CONCEPT OF MECHANICAL IMPEDANCE

ANALYSE EXPERIMENTALE DU COMPORTEMENT DYNAMIQUE D'UNE STRUCTURE MECANIQUE. CONCEPT D'IMPEDANCE MECANIQUE

The experimental method of analysis called "mechanical impedance" (the concept of mechanical impedance is of the same nature as that of electrical impedance) is used to study the dynamic behavior of the structure of the material. It reveals the vibration pattern in any given area of a component. The SNCF Testing Division uses this method to analyse stress patterns in components, to limit the amplitude of certain vibrations, or to monitor the condition of a metallic structure during operation. The applications of this method are shown by means of examples.
