QUIET PRODUCT DESIGN 5-7 August 1992, Cambridge, Mass. This is a three-day seminar taught by Professor Richard H. Lyon, of M.I.T. The seminar examines the noise producing processes in machines from a fundamental, design-oriented viewpoint by making considerable use of practical examples of noise reducing designs and studies. The noise generated by a machine due to impacts and the geometric imperfections in gears, cams, and linkages; sources such as fluid flow, combustion, and electromagnetics, with examples from jets, fans, compressors, internal combustion engines, and electrical motors and generators will be covered in the lectures and demonstrations. The text for the course is Professor Lyon's book, Machinery Noise and Diagnostics, published by Butterworth-Heinemann. Further details from: Prof. R. H. Lyon Rm 3-366 Mass. Inst. of Technology Cambridge, Mass. 02139 USA
DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM DESIGN 10-12 August 1992, Cambridge, Mass. This is a three-day seminar taught by Professor Richard H. Lyon, of M.I.T. This program is for practicing engineers concerned with selecting or designing diagnostic systems for monitoring the operation of single machines or entire processes. Lectures and demonstrations will review the ways that information carrying vibrations are generated by mechanisms in a machine, and how these signals are modified by faults; methods of processing data for diagnostics and the relations between signal processing choices and basic phenomena; theory and application of inverse filters for diagnostic purposes. The text for the course is Professor Lyon's book, Machinery Noise and Diagnostics, published by Butterworth-Heinmann. Further details from: Prof. R. H. Lyon Rm. 3-366 Mass.
