Assignment 12: Vibration Isolation You are asked to provide vibration isolation for a fan. The motor rotates at 3600 RPM (revolutions per minute). The fan wheel is connected to the motor by a belt, allowing it to rotate at a slower rate of 1800 RPM. Calculate the two forcing frequencies in this system. Which of these should be used in the selection of the isolator? What would be the highest appropriate isolator natural frequency? How much static deflection would be necessary to reach this natural frequency?

A fan and motor combination generates vibration at two frequencies: 60 Hz and 150 Hz. Calculate the minimum static deflection of an isolator that would provide a high degree of isolation for this device.
A 500 kg Cummins B engine installed in a load hauled dump used in the underground mine is to be isolated from the cabin, where the loader operator settles down, vibrates at frequencies ranging from 13 kHz to 16 kHz. It is estimated that at least 85 percent vibration isolation must beachieved for the operator’s comfort. As the design engineer of the company, the technical manager tasked you to evaluate the necessary static deflection of the isolator.

A NC machine tool table is powered by a servomotor, lead screw, and optical encoder. The lead screw has a pitch = 5.0 mm and is connected to the motor shaft with a gear ratio of 16:1 (16 turns of the motor for each turn of the lead screw). The optical encoder is connected directly to the lead screw and generates 200 pulses/rev of the lead screw. The table must move a distance = 100 mm at a feed rate = 500 mm/min. Determine (a) the pulse count received by the control system to verify that the table has moved exactly 100 mm; and (b) the pulse rate and (c) motor speed that correspond to the feed rate of 500 mm/min. Solve the problem assuming the optical encoder is directly coupled to the motor shaft rather than to the lead screw.

A CNC machine tool table is powered by a servomotor, ball screw, and optical encoder. The ball screw has a pitch = 7.5 mm and is connected to the motor shaft with a gear ratio of 12:1. The optical encoder is connected to the ball screw and generates 200 pulses/rev of the screw. The table must move a distance of 300 mm at a feed rate = 450 mm/min.

Also, what are (b) the pulse rate and (c) motor speed that corresponds to the specified feed rate?
Figures (1) and (2) show how springs can be used to support a block in two different situations. In Fig. (1), they help decrease the amplitude of the fluctuating force transmitted by the block to the foundation. In Fig. (2), they help decrease the amplitude of the fluctuating displacement transmitted by the foundation to the block. The ratio of the transmitted force to the impressed force or the ratio of the transmitted displacement to the impressed displacement is called the transmissibility. Derive an equation for the transmissibility for each situation. Give your answer in terms of the ratio wf/wn of the frequency wf of the impressed force or impressed displacement to the natural frequency wn of the spring-mass system. Show that in order to cause any reduction in transmissibility, the ratio wf/wn must be greater than V2
