Machine Foundation Design
Machine Vibration; Steady State and Transient Response; Vibration Isolation; Block and Frame Foundations; Use of FE/CAE Packages for Design; Case Studies and Best Practices.
Program AdvantageClear understanding of the machine data and appreciation of its influence/limitations on the response; Designers have improved confidence level; Do's and don'ts related to machine foundation; Validation needs for FE Packages and Reduction in machine down time.
Dr K G Bhatia
B.Sc. Engg., ME, PhD
FIE, FISET, FIASE, MISWE, MICI
Formerly:
- General Manager - Bharat Heavy Electrical Ltd. (BHEL)
- President - ISET (Indian Society of Earthquake Technology)
- Member - Research Council, Structural Engineering Research Centre (CSIR)
- Member - Committee on Noise and Vibration-Dept. of Science & Technology (DST), Government of India
It is this rich experience which Dr Bhatia has brought out in form a Handbook (see below). He shares this experience with Practising Engineers, Students, Academicians, Researchers and Industry in general during such training programs and Workshops.
The program covers basic fundamentals of vibration analysis, modeling, analysis and design aspects. Various Case Studies of real life machines, problems and solutions backed up by field measurements are also discussed.
