About

We work with industry specialists to study noise and vibration of transportation vehicles, human response to vibration, and condition monitoring of infrastructure.  

Our main research activities are:  

  • dynamic modelling  
  • high-frequency vibrations   
  • human factors research unit  
  • railway noise and vibration  
  • condition monitoring  

Our laboratories incorporate the Human Factors Research Unit (HFRU). This contains a range of equipment for vibration measurement, testing and analysis.  

Through our work with colleagues at ISVR Consulting, we contribute to a number of short courses for industry on vibration modelling, measurement and control.
