StandardDetails

This part of IS0 7626 specifies procedures for measuring mechanical mobility and other frequency-response functions of structures, such as buildings, machines and vehicles, using a single translational vibration exciter attached to the structure under test for the duration of the measurement. It is applicable to measurements of mobility, accelerance, or dynamic compliance, either as a driving-point measurement or as a transfer measurement. It also applies to the determination of the arithmetic reciprocals of those ratios such as free effective mass. Although excitation is applied at a single point, there is no limit on the number of points at which simultaneous measurements of the motion response may be made. Multipleresponse measurements are required, for example, for modal analyses.
