Abstract:This paper deals with dynamic tests of the building with diesel generator and the process of determining the cause of the cracks in its walls. After initial measurements and FEM analysis, it was assumed that vibrations propagate to the structure through the base of the generator. Therefore, it was recommended to apply an elastic antivibration layer at the supporting base of the generator. However, the problem with cracks persisted and it was necessary to perform additional tests and analysis. Finally, acoustic… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
