Limits of the Discrete Fourier Transform in Exact Identifying of the Vibrations Frequency
Journal Title: Romanian Journal of Acoustics and Vibration - Year 2015, Vol 12, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper present the limitations encountered by using the Discrete Fourier Transform for the analysis of vibration signals. Difficulties in determining the precise frequencies appear particularly in cases where the acquired vibration signals are characterized by low frequency and short duration. The performed analyzes, made for different specific situations by using the signal processing toolbox of the Scilab program, succeed highlighting the reduced capability of the Discrete Fourier Transforms to accurately evaluate the frequency values.

Friction Pendulum Dampers for Earthquake Isolated Structural Systems
Base isolation systems have become a significant element of a structural system to enhance reliability during an earthquake. One type of base isolation system is Friction Pendulum Dampers in which the superstructure is i...
Assessment of Dissipated Energy to Harmonic Cycles of Displacement for Visco-Elastic Elastomeric Anti-Seismic Insulators
The paper presents some results of the research carried out to highlight the dissipation capacity of the elastomeric systems to harmonic deformations due to the kinematic excitations of the exterior harmonic displacement...
Regenerative Model with Delay for the Cutting Process. Part I: Analytical Approach
This paper makes an analytical approach for the study of a new regenerative model with delay for the cutting processes. The model has two degrees of freedom and the delay is considered for both of them. In addition, in t...
