Abstract :
An electromechanical system which produces vertical vibrations in the image of prescribed functional wave-forms is described and the mathematical theory of its operation derived. The advantage and usefulness of this device for theoretical researches and for routine testing, as compared to the common vibration generator producing sinusoidal motions, is indicated by actual examples of the response of vibration pick-ups to complex motions of prescribed waveform.
