mechanical impedance

The ratio of force and speed is termed "mechanical impedance".

A body mass dependent mechanical impedance model for applications in vibration seat testing.

Likewise, mechanical resistance is the real part of mechanical impedance.

A single degree-of-freedom system is currently being constructed to study the mechanical impedance of the lower limbs during cycling.

Yet the mechanical impedance is affected by the resonant characteristics that arise from the structural use of the material.

Mechanical impedance is a measure of how much a structure resists motion when subjected to a harmonic force.

The soundboard increases the surface of the vibrating area in a process called mechanical impedance matching.

His research on mechanical impedance has made major conceptual contributions to understanding of root growth against mechanical resistance.

Mechanical impedance is the inverse of mechanical admittance or mobility.

At resonance frequencies, the mechanical impedance will be lower, meaning less force is needed to cause a structure to move at a given velocity.

It is this basic analogy that leads to the analogy between electrical and mechanical impedance.

Merit to experimentally imposed mechanical impedance was examined.

For instance force/velocity is mechanical impedance.

A sand core system will be used so that mechanical impedance can be varied independently of aeration and water status.

Every law of circuit analysis, such as Kirchhoff's laws, that apply in the electrical domain also applies to the mechanical impedance analogy.

Z is mechanical impedance.

Low mechanical impedance, resonance.

Due to their low modulus, the mechanical impedance of the actuators, they are well-matched to common optical membrane materials.

The mechanical impedance is a function of the frequency of the applied force and can vary greatly over frequency.

The principle disadvantage of the mobility analogy is that it does not maintain the analogy between electrical and mechanical impedance.

From this, a mechanical impedance can be defined in terms of the imaginary angular frequency, jω, which entirely follows the electrical analogy.

Essentially, the goal of the transmission line is to minimize acoustical or mechanical impedance at frequencies corresponding to the driver's fundamental free air resonance.

Mechanical impedance is defined as the ratio of force to velocity, thus it is not analogous to electrical impedance.

Most of our current research is concerned with the ability of the human neuromuscular system to adapt limb mechanical impedance to the requirements of the task.

In the 1970s, scientist Michael Kasha radically overhauled every aspect of guitar design to incorporate principles such as mechanical impedance matching.
