This thesis describes research into the use of a piezoelectric tuning fork as the displacement sensor in a simple force feedback seismometer. The research also includes the use of a second piezoelectric transducer as both the suspension system and the force transducer for the seismometer. A simple inertial seismometer model, based on a damped mass-spring system, was developed. 2014-07-31T10:52:21Z 2014-07-31T10:52:21Z 2005 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/5098 eng application/pdf Department of Electrical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town |
