Forced Vibrations
The prime mover or engine installation generates vibrations that are transmitted
to the supporting structure. In marine installations, the significant sources of
vibration are the engine, the gearbox and the propeller.
Vibrations transmitted from

the engine to the structure.
Vibrations transmitted by the

propeller thrust to the blade.
04 FORCED VIBRATIONS
The structure of the foundation should
be considerably stiffer than the elastic
support ( at least 10 times stiffer).
Please note the importance of
the foundations impedance!

the structure to the engine.

THE PRIME MOVER OR ENGINE INSTALLATION GENERATES VIBRATIONS WHICH ARE CONDUCTED INTO THE
SHIPS STRUCTURE. THE STRUCTURE BORN NOISE CAN BE EFFICIENTLY REDUCED BY ELASTIC SUSPENSIONS.

Natural Frequency
To understand the background of elastic suspension (or flexible mounting as it
is referred to by some engineers) the following equation should be considered.
A ship propulsion line consists of different components, machines with If such a system is excited by some forcing frequency or cyclic impulse,
rotating and reciprocating parts, which have a mass and are connected it will vibrate at the so-called Natural Frequency of the structure. In the

The Natural Frequency (Hz) can be calculated

according to the following equation:

f0= 2r m
Equation
There are many forces or cyclic torques in a propulsion line, which have
their origin in the engine, propeller or other parts of the system. When
some of these excitation forces change periodically and the frequency
of these fluctuations are near or equal to the natural frequency, the
amplitude of vibration increases.

When the system is without damping or only slightly damped, the

ADVICE
Some advice when selecting an elastic suspension
01. Elastic Mounting needs solid seating
You should ensure that the stiffness of the engine seating (bed plates, girders, Higher stiffness of the seating can be easily achieved if girders are
etc.) is at least ten times higher than the stiffness of the elastic mounts! placed directly under the elastic or semi-elastic mounts.

* The factor for the multiplication of stat. stiffness to get the dynamic stiffness depends on the shore hardness: 1.1 for 40sh, 1.15 for 45sh, 1.25 for 50sh, 1.35 for 55sh, 1.5 for 60sh and 1.65 for 65sh
