We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Torsional Vibration",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Instrument suite monitors noise and vibration from
National Instruments, which we summarised at the time by saying "Measuring and analysing human vibration signals can help control the negative effects of mechanical vibration on the human body".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Couplings resist vibration from
Stock Drive Products/Sterling Instrument: "S50F and S50P couplings are stocked in two hub styles; conventional pin type hubs which use a set screw for fastening and a Fairloc version".
In March 2007, we covered the news from Datum Electronics
concerning its Series 420 torque transducers
- take a look at Transducers provide detailed information
which says: "Datum Electronics' 420 torque transducers fit into drive systems and are able to provide enhanced and more detailed information on transmission characteristics within the drive train itself".
Take a look also at the news release from LMS International, Innovative transmission systems put to the test,
as well as Token-based software combines four tools from ATA Engineering,
and Holistic approach aids tractor vibration control from Freudenberg Simrit LP.
