Summary
Seismic instruments are used to measure the displacement, velocity and acceleration
components of a vibratory system. Basic theory of Seismic instruments is based on
forced vibration considering the vibratory system under base excitation. A single
Seismic instrument can be sued as vibrometer, velometrer and accelerometer using
suitable calibration.
