Random Vibration (Modal Superposition) Analysis
The vibration generated in vehicles from motors, road conditions or from rocket
and jet engines, to name a few sources, is a combination of many frequencies and
has a certain "random" nature. Random vibration (modal superposition) analysis determines how the
structure of an object or a supported object reacts to constant, random vibration.
Random vibration (modal superposition) analysis uses input from linear natural frequency (modal) analysis
and power spectral density curves, which are representations of vibration frequencies
and energy in a statistical form. The analysis determines the root-mean-square response
of displacement and stress resulting from constant, random vibration over time.
This information can help discern the structural integrity of a vehicle and the effects
of vibration on payloads being transported by a vehicle.
