The University of Auckland requires a Scanning Laser Vibrometer for general purpose laboratory use on a wide range of research projects. Applications are typically vibrations, structural dynamics and acoustics in the audio-frequency range, although some applications could be at higher frequencies. The typical size of structures varies from small (mm-scale) to objects with dimensions of a few metres.
The vibrometer will be used in the research labs of the Department of Mechanical Engineering. Research activities include those of the Dynamics and Control, Mechatronics, Acoustics, Microfabrication and Manufacturing Systems Research Groups. It will be used in a diverse range of one-off projects by a substantial number of users (researchers, academics and research students). While it will be routinely supported by University technicians, it is important that it is relatively easy to use and has an intuitive interface for relatively inexperienced users, both for setting up scan points and in taking measurements.
We will measure vibrational velocity or frequency responses, with perhaps shaker or hammer excitation, and will export the data to Matlab (or other) for subsequent post-processing. Animation of ODS is required and modal analysis capability would be useful. It is essential that the Laser Safety Class be I or II due to the locations in which it will be used. Our research needs vary, therefore, while operating on a limited budget, any features which would enhance our capabilities would be of interest, (e.g. broader frequency or measurement range etc).
