Application of multi-terminal network theory to vibration problems requires knowledge of the point and point-to-point mechanical admittance matrices at the mechanical terminals of the structures to be connected together. the admittance matrices contain elements relating lineal motions and… More

This project, if successful, should provide: a general model and procedure for use in designing piezoelectric sensors -hydrophones, accelerometers, etc.--which would enable the designer of a sensor to predict its sensitivities to the stimulus for which it was designed, and to extraneous stimuli… More
