How to measure displacement and period of scaled structure in the lab?

11 January 2021 1 10K Report

Hello,

I want to measure the displacement and period of a 3D building structure that I have constructed in the lab. How can I measure there parameters? What equipment I need? From where I can get them>

Thanks

Ali Moghimi

dear Rakan Alalwan

you can use LVDT transducer for displacement measurement.

and for measurement of period, I think you can use image processing methods.
