Description
In a single useful volume, Vibration Fundamentals explains the basic theory, applications, and benefits of vibration analysis, which is
the dominant predictive maintenance technique used with maintenance management programs.
All mechanical equipment in motion generates
a vibration profile, or signature, that reflects its operating condition. This is true regardless of speed or whether the mode of operation
is rotation, reciprocation, or linear motion. There are several predictive maintenance techniques used to monitor and analyze critical
machines, equipment, and systems in a typical plant. These include vibration analysis, ultrasonics, thermography, tribology, process
monitoring, visual inspection, and other nondestructive analysis techniques. Of these techniques, vibration analysis is the dominant
predictive maintenance technique used with maintenance management programs, and this book explains the basic theory, applications, and
benefits in one easy-to-absorb volume that plant staff will find invaluable.
This is the second book in a new series published by Butterworth-Heinemann
in association with PLANT ENGINEERING magazine. PLANT ENGINEERING fills a unique information need for the men and women who operate and
maintain industrial plants. It bridges the information gap between engineering education and practical application. As technology advances
at increasingly faster rates, this information service is becoming more and more important. Since its first issue in 1947, PLANT ENGINEERING
has stood as the leading problem-solving information source for America's industrial plant engineers, and this book series will effectively
contribute to that resource and reputation.
Audience
