Footfall Analysis Outputs

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I have undertaken a footfall analysis for a floor which will be accommodate a very sensitive machine (TEM). From the study I have determined that an anti-vibration floor will be required to reduce the accelerations to an acceptable level which the structure itself cannot achieve. Following discussions with the anti-vibration floor designers, they require the floor vibration response up to a very high frequency (say 4kHz). However, as far as I'm aware the results in ROBOT only give the acceleration vs excitation frequency as an output and thus we cannot provide the anti-vibration floor designers with the required outputs they need. Am I correct or is it possible to output the acceleration vs nodal response frequency which they require.

Thanks in advance

Hi Ian,

I'm sorry for the late answer but I was checking if there is any way of getting the results you need but this cannot be done without the changes in the internal code of Robot.
