| Summary: | This project is about the study of dynamic responses of polymeric foam when it is subjected to a base motion. There are two types of foam used in this study, namely, polystyrene and polyvinyl chloride. Apart from that, this project also proposes to see the effects of foam padding with variation in layers. The household appliance that has been used in this study is a blender. Literature review and theoretical review of vibration is described first followed by the equipment specifications and handling that involved in calibrating of equipment and handling of analyzer including a brief explanation on MATLAB Software. The methodology and analysis of results are put forward. A justification on the selection of this project, which covers the selection of material (Polystyrene and Polyvinyl Chloride, PVC), fixture design and equipment setting was carried out. The analysis of results was based on the data collected from the experiment. Finally, a conclusion and recommendations on the results obtained were made. |
