m+p VibSlideRule

Multi-Function Vibration Calculator

The m+p VibSlideRule offers a wide range of useful calculating tools for vibration testing and structural analysis. It helps visualise the relationships that apply and includes units conversions.

Typical applications:

• Test development
• Analysis
• Test set-up
• Calibration and error analysis

m+p VibSlideRule is free-ware and can be installed without a license.

Note: m+p VibSlideRule is included in m+p Analyzer/m+p Analyzer Viewer/m+p VibControl installers and does not have to be installed separately.

m+p VibSlideRule provides tools for:

	calculate displacement, velocity, acceleration and frequency supports translational as well as rotational/angular motion
	calculate sweep time and number of cycles for a sine sweep defined by start- and stop frequency, sweep type and sweep rate
	definition of arbitrary PSD-spectrum using linear interpolation between data-points calculate corresponding RMS- and peak-values for displacement, velocity, acceleration export PSD-spectrum for use in m+p VibControl using linear-linear or linear-logarithmic axis scaling (e.g. according to IEC 61373 – random testing)
	calculate RMS-value for given bandwidth and constant PSD-spectrum
	half-sine, saw tooth, rectangle and trapezoid pulse shapes compute pulse width, peak acceleration and velocity change
	compute moment, force and distance
	compute input-output ratio (linear and dB) supports amplitude and power input values
	compute errors for true and actual measurements (% and dB)
	convert values between different units Force: N ↔ lbf Transducer Sensitivity: mV/’Unit’ ↔ ‘Unit’/V Acceleration: m/s² ↔ g Velocity: m/s ↔ in/s Displacement: mm ↔ in
