it will be seen that similar instrumentatation is used for both methods, the main differences being in
the sample mounting fixtures and in
the methods of exciting the sample.

When using the Capacitive Trans- ducer with non-conducting materials, the second electrode of the air
capacitor can be made from a correctly sized spot of metalic paint on
the specimen opposite the transducer. The ground connection can be a
thin line of paint from the spot to the
nearest fixed end of the sample. Nonmagnetic samples can be made sensitive by attaching a small piece of
ferrous material to the bar in front of

it should be noted that these
equations were developed on the assumption that the exciting frequency
is below the first resonance of the
bar. The frequency dependent terms
should also be taken into consideration at higher frequencies.
A sinusoidal output signal from
the Exciter Control is amplified and
passed to the Exciter which vibrates
the specimen via a push rod. The
push rod incorporates a Force Transducer that feeds a signal proportional to the exciting force into one
of the measuring channels of the Exciter Control via Conditioning Amplifier and channel of the Tracking Filter unit. The acceleration at the mid
point of the bar is picked up by the

These correction factors are discussed fully in "Elevated Temperature Dynamic Modulii of Metallic
Materials", (p. 890906), W. H.
Hill, K. D. Shimmin and B. A. Wilcox, and in " A Method for Determining Mechanical Resonance Frequencies and for Calculating Elastic Modulii from These Frequencies", (p.
1 221 1 238), S. Spinner and W. E.
Tefft, both in ATSM Proceedings Vol.
61(1961).
3.5. Phase Measurement Method
A method similar to that used for
the larger bar samples tested in
bending can be adapted for use with
compression excitation. This method
was developed by D. M. Norris Jr.
and Wun-Chung Young and is fully
described in "Longitudinal Forced Vibration of Viscoelastic Bars with End
Mass", Special Report 135, Cold
Regions Research and Engineering
Laboratory, U.S. Army, and in
"Complex Modulus Measurements
by Longitudinal Vibration Testing",
Experimental Mechanics, Vol. 10
Feb. 1 9 7 0 , p. 9396.
Fig. 18 shows the measuring arrangement that utilises the phase
difference between the signals from
accelerometers at different ends of a
test bar. The Phase Meter indicates
this difference by measuring the
phase angle between the 120 kHz
outputs from the Slave Filters which
are connected one to each of the accelerometers. The Heterodyne Analyzer controls the whole system.

4. Conclusion
Having come thus far, the reader
will now be faced with the problem
of deciding which of the many systerns available is the correct one for
his test requirements. Guidance can
be given in fairly general terms only
as so many factors, some of them
conflicting, influence the selection,
but a f e w important areas of influence will be considered in broad
terms and some conclusions drawn.
