- Time History Analysis of a Basketball Hoop
You examine the response of a basketball hoop subjected to an impulse load caused by a slam dunk.
- Harmonic Analysis of Two Beams
An air-conditioning unit weighting 1,200 lb is mounted on two simply supported beams as shown below. The motor of the AC unit rotates at a frequency range of 12 to 18 Hz generating a vertical out-of-balance force of 60 lb. Determine the peak amplitudes of the steady-state deflection and acceleration of the beams.
- Random Vibration Analysis of a Circuit Board
You evaluate the response of a circuit board to a random vibration environment. The circuit board is subjected to an acceleration PSD (Power Spectral Density) profile recommended by NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) to test hardware for flight qualification.
