ABSTRACT
Faults in machine components or structural members are generally caused by fatigue load. Continuous monitoring of these components is essential in service condition and has become major task in recent days. Out of the methods available for condition monitoring of these machine components, vibration based measurement methods are very important. In this work an attempt has been made to analyze the frequency response of a structural component used in BEL industry has subjected to forced vibration for damaged and undamaged conditions. The responses are then analyzed to find the variation of first three fundamental frequencies. The necessary graphs are drawn to identify the presence of faults in machine component. The method can be used as a condition monitoring technique to identify the faults in machine components.
