A new advance in vibration monitoring, developed with EPRI, facilitates the measurement of torsional vibration and is expected to be of significant value to power plants relying on a wide range of ...

Crankshaft torsional dampers are increasingly being used for the gasoline engines of compact cars as well as for ordinary high speed diesel and gasoline engines. Recently, so-called bending dampers ...

Dual mass flywheels (DMFs) serve as a crucial component in modern powertrain systems by effectively isolating torsional vibrations. The system comprises two independently rotating masses connected via ...

Today’s powertrain designs, like start-stop systems or downsized engines, often induce torsional-vibration phenomena, which negatively impact NVH (noise, vibration, harshness) performance and ...

Described herein is an experimental and theoretical study of the dynamic properties of torsional viscous-friction dampers for use on Diesel engines and the characteristics of torsional vibration of ...

This article was updated May 24, 2023. It was originally published Oct. 10, 2000. Noise and vibrations in power transmission devices—both those that use linear, reciprocating motion and rotational ...

Obtaining perfect balance is important to your engine's performance. The harmonic balancer reduces torsional vibration of the crankshaft, which is the motion naturally generated during each power ...

An international research team has investigated the impact of wind-induced vibrations on solar modules and has found that wind-induced stress can have significant mechanical repercussions on PV arrays ...

A crankshaft may experience irregular rotational speed patterns caused by a combustion engine’s discrete firing process. These excite components of the driveshaft, which causes rotational vibrations ...
