Mechanical vibration measurement

In the calibration of mechanical vibration pickups, the accuracy of the calibration depends upon how accurately the displacement of the pickup can be measured. This thesis has been a continuation of a study into the feasibility of calibrating vibration pickups by means of an optical interferometer system. The unit used in the study was designed by Professor E.K. Gatcombe in 1952. The unit was assembled by Lieutenant E.P. Appert in 1953, and he at that time, made a preliminary study of its utility.
