Machinery Noise and Diagnostics

By Richard H. Lyon

Machinery Noise and Diagnostics provides engineers with an understanding of how dynamic forces produce structural vibration in machines and how these vibrations are transmitted through the machine and produce radiated sound. The book presents the theoretical and practical aspects of machinery noise and diagnostics. The chapters contained in the text discuss subjects on the integration of noise reduction into the design process; sounds radiated by machines; the vibratory or acoustical signals picked up by a sensor and used for diagnostics; and other aspects of diagnostic procedures likely to be important in future machine monitoring systems. This publication will be of value to mechanical engineers, mechanics and machine designers.
