June 23-26, 2009 Full Meeting (3 days) - $875. The Vibration Institute will conduct its 2009 National Technical Training Symposium (33rd Annual Meeting) in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania from June 23 through June 26 at Hilton Harrisburg. The purpose of the Symposium is to provide specific training in practical vibration technology. Program
Tuesday, June 23 One-Day Courses:
Time Waveform Analysis This one-day training session on time waveform analysis features instruction on analyzing time waveforms to diagnose machines and gain information on their condition. Obtaining and analyzing spectra to maximize the use of field data are reviewed. The goal of the lectures is to provide understanding of the procedures involved in setting up and analyzing vibration data.
Measurement and Analysis of Rotor Vibrations Topics included in this one-day training session on the measurement and analysis of rotor vibration are the use of non-contacting displacement probes, transient analysis, orbital waveforms, and spectral analysis of rotor data. National and International shaft vibration standards are summarized. Unusual rotor-dynamic case histories are described.
