AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the interpretation of vibrational modes in relation to accelerometer data from a Bimorph beam (PEH). The "Predicted" graph is believed to be generated using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) tools, while the "Measured" graph reflects actual data collected from experiments. The setup likely involved exciting the MEMS arm with a high mechanical impedance source and varying the frequency to obtain the results. This approach is analogous to plotting the transfer function of a two-port network. Understanding these graphs is crucial for analyzing the vibrational behavior of the system.

TL;DR Summary
I understand the basic meaning of vibrational mode. Could someone interpret what this graph means?

Ps: It is not a homework hence why I did not leave it under that headline.

Oh, like this: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct.../8/4/645/pdf&usg=AOvVaw2DBGVt6_5h1-fJ0Yv-EqoI

So the "Predicted" graph was likely plotted using FEA tools, and the "Measured" graph was plotted directly from the acquired data. Presumably they were exciting the MEMS arm with a high mechanical impedance source and sweeping the frequency of that source to get the plot. Similar to how you plot the transfer function of a 2-port network...

Thank you so much
 
Here's a video by “driving 4 answers” who seems to me to be well versed on the details of Internal Combustion engines. The video does cover something that's a bit shrouded in 'conspiracy theory', and he touches on that, but of course for phys.org, I'm only interested in the actual science involved. He analyzes the claim of achieving 100 mpg with a 427 cubic inch V8 1970 Ford Galaxy in 1977. Only the fuel supply system was modified. I was surprised that he feels the claim could have been...
Thread 'Turbocharging carbureted petrol 2 stroke engines'
Hi everyone, online I ve seen some images about 2 stroke carbureted turbo (motorcycle derivation engine). Now.. In the past in this forum some members spoke about turbocharging 2 stroke but not in sufficient detail. The intake and the exhaust are open at the same time and there are no valves like a 4 stroke. But if you search online you can find carbureted 2stroke turbo sled or the Am6 turbo. The question is: Is really possible turbocharge a 2 stroke carburated(NOT EFI)petrol engine and...
