VENUE

The Course is held in the Faculty of Engineering , University of Ancona, in room 160/3. In order to facilitate orientation in the Faculty, each floor is identified by its altitude above sea level. The main entrance to the Faculty is at level 160, floor #1 and room 160/3 is on the same floor as the entrance. The Faculty can be reached either by bus (bus #4 or bus #1/4 to the University terminal- 200 m from the Faculty) or by taxi. Should you need a taxi, call at the following telephone numbers: tel. 071 43321, 071 202 895, 071 2810 447.

OBJECTIVES
The Course intends to provide the fundamentals of laser Doppler vibrometry for vibration measurements and modal analysis, and offers hands-on experience on the most recent instrumentation.

TARGET GROUP
R&D Engineers operating in industry and executives who wish to further their knowledge of laser-based measurement techniques and their application to problem solving.

CONTENT OF THE COURSE
Introduction to Laser Vibrometry: basic theories
Scanning Laser Doppler Vibrometry
Laser Vibrometry Applications
Hands-on, laboratory sessions: instrumentation by Polytec and Ometron will be used.
