SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on the relationships between frequency, amplitude, and acceleration in vibration analysis. The user identified a critical error in their calculations by using 32.2 ft/s² instead of the correct value of 386 in/s². This adjustment significantly impacts the accuracy of vibration formulas. Understanding these relationships is essential for precise vibration analysis in engineering applications.

What are the relationships between frequency, amplitude (double) and acceleration?

To all, I figured it out myself. I was also using 32.2 ft/ sq.sec when I should have been using 386 in/sq.sec. for my calculations.
