This paper argues the necessity of rigorous environmental testing of downhole drilling equipment, particularly focusing on vibration resistance and transportation durability, to ensure high performance and longevity in the field.
Read moreExperimental Modal Analysis Seminar with Dr. Pete Avitabile (October 29-31, 2024)
Dr. Avitabile has over 40 years of industrial and university experience in finite element modeling, experimental structural dynamic modeling, correlation of analytical and experimental data, integration of analytical and experimental data to provide better component and system modal representations for structural response. He is the author of the newly released book entitled “Modal Testing: A Practitioner’s Guide".
Measurements with MIMO shakers will be demonstrated; participant data will be performed using impact testing strategies. Dr. Pete Avitabile, Professor Emeritus at the University of Massachusetts Lowell, will lead the seminar discussions.
