Older CD players had once been a source of annoyance to users as they were prone to mistracking from vibration and shock.

When the patient can no longer feel / hear the vibration, the tuning fork is held in front of the ear ; the patient should once more be able to hear a ringing sound.

The sound wave is therefore reinforced once every vibration cycle and it quickly builds up to a very large amplitude.

If the flutes were straight, the whole tooth would impact the material at once, causing vibration and reducing accuracy and surface quality.

" According to that text, vibration involves a physical set of steps, starting in a standing position, breathing in through the nose while imagining the name of the god entering with the breath, imagining that breath travelling through the entire body, stepping forward with the left foot while throwing the body forward with arms outstretched, visualizing the name rushing out when spoken, ending in an upright stance, with the right forefinger placed upon the lips.

) Speed limits may also be set in an attempt to reduce the environmental impact of road traffic ( vehicle noise, vibration, emissions ), and to satisfy local community wishes.

It was held in the right hand to set the upper strings in vibration ; when not in use, it hung from the instrument by a ribbon.

These idiophones are set in vibration by being struck, for example cymbals or xylophones.

Plucked idiophones ( lamellophones ) – idiophones set in vibration by being plucked, for example the jaw harp or thumb piano.

Blown idiophones – idiophones set in vibration by the movement of air, for example the Aeolsklavier, an instrument consisting of several pieces of wood which vibrate when air is blown onto them by a set of bellows.

Shift Supervisor Jack Godell ( Lemmon ) notices an unusual vibration while grabbing his cup of coffee which he had set down ; then he finds that a gauge is misreading and that the coolant is dangerously low ( he thought it was overflowing ).

The hurdy-gurdy's strings are similarly set into vibration by means of a " rosin wheel ," a wooden wheel which contacts the strings as it is rotated by means of a crank handle, creating a " bowed " tone.

Tapping is a guitar playing technique, where a string is fretted and set into vibration as part of a single motion of being pushed onto the fretboard, as opposed to the standard technique being fretted with one hand and picked with the other.

In October 2004, JR Central announced plans for ride improvement modifications to its 300 series fleet involving the addition of semi-active vibration control units to seven cars out of the total of sixteen in each set ( end cars 1 and 16, pantograph cars 6 and 12, and Green cars 8 to 10 ), and also new non-linear air suspension on all cars in each set.

However, a breadboard is not very suitable for prototyping that needs to remain in a set configuration for an appreciable period of time nor for physical mock-ups containing a working circuit or for any environment subject to vibration or movement.

It was decided that the ride should be comfortable yet performance-oriented, but not as stiff and low as that of a true track machine, as that would imply reduction in practical use and comfort as well as increasing noise and vibration, which would be a contradictory design choice in relation to the former set premise – the goal of creating the ultimate road car.

This set up a vibration, causing the split propeller to hit a guy wire bracing the rear vertical rudder.

Apparently no attempt had been made to demonstrate experimentally the theories arrived at by the older professor until Vilhelm Bjerknes, then about 17 or 18 years of age, turned his mathematical knowledge and mechanical abilities to the devising of a series of instruments by which all the well-known phenomena of electricity and magnetism were illustrated and reproduced by spheres and discs and membranes set into rhythmic vibration in a bath containing a viscous fluid such as syrup.

A third set simulates vibration such as stall buffet.

Opposite of the IR port is a switch which, by default is set to switch between normal ringer operation and silent mode with vibration.

Prolonged exposure to the pronounced vibration set up by the tool can lead to blood-circulation failures in the fingers, a condition known as white finger.

# Protection from vibration by way of set PPV ( peak particle velocity ) limits at certain times during the working day.

A Harmonichord is a kind of upright piano, in which the strings are set in vibration not by the blow of the hammer but by indirectly transmitted friction.

The Optacon includes a knob to adjust the intensity at which the tactile array rods vibrate, a knob to set the image threshold between white and black needed to turn on the vibration of the rods in the tactile array, and a switch that determines whether images will be interpreted as dark print on a light background or as light print on a dark background.

Within a few transits of the string, all these cancellations and reinforcements sort the vibration into an orderly set of waves that vibrate over 1 / 1, 1 / 2, 1 / 3, 1 / 4, 1 / 5, 1 / 6, etc.

According to the Homeric Hymn to Hermes ( 475 ) he was attracted by sounds of music while walking on the banks of the Nile, and found they proceeded from the shell of a tortoise across which were stretched tendons which the wind had set in vibration.

In addition, other phenomena can be approximated by simple harmonic motion, including the motion of a simple pendulum as well as molecular vibration.

The handle motion is small, allowing the fork to be held by the handle without damping the vibration, but it allows the handle to transmit the vibration to a resonator ( like the hollow rectangular box often used ), which amplifies the sound of the fork.

A vibration can be defined as a back-and-forth motion around a reference value.

If all the parts making up a medium were rigidly bound, then they would all vibrate as one, with no delay in the transmission of the vibration and therefore no wave motion.

On the other hand, if all the parts were independent, then there would not be any transmission of the vibration and again, no wave motion.

In the field of mechanics and structures, Aeroelastic flutter is an aeroelastic phenomenon where a body's own aerodynamic forces couple with its natural mode of vibration to produce rapid periodic motion.

Massage involves working and acting on the body with pressure – structured, unstructured, stationary, or moving – tension, motion, or vibration, done manually or with mechanical aids.

Real strings have finite curvature at the bridge and nut, and the bridge, because of its motion, are not exactly nodes of vibration.

Flutter is a self-feeding and potentially destructive vibration where aerodynamic forces on an object couple with a structure's natural mode of vibration to produce rapid periodic motion.

Longitudinal waves, also known as " l-waves ", are waves that have the same direction of vibration as their direction of travel, which means that the movement of the medium is in the same direction as, or the opposite direction to, the motion of the wave.

Voluntary action is explained as the result of a firm connexion between a motion and a sensation or " idea ," and, on the physical side, between an " ideal " and a motory vibration.

Functions may variously include sensing touch, air motion, heat, vibration ( sound ), and especially olfaction ( smell ) or gustation ( taste ).

Translation, rotation, and a combination of the two types of energy in vibration ( kinetic and potential ) of atoms represent the degrees of freedom of motion which classically contribute to the heat capacity of atomic matter ( loosely bound electrons occasionally also participate ).

The numerous smaller wires comprising the braid are much more resistant to breaking under repeated motion and vibration than is a cable of larger wires.

Tuned mass dampers stabilize against violent motion caused by harmonic vibration.

Accelerometers are used to measure the motion and vibration of a structure that is exposed to dynamic loads.

The primary mode of motion in crystalline substances is vibration.

In general however, it is a function of the temperature of the system as internal modes of motion, vibration, or rotation become available in higher energy regimes.
