Avoidance of vibration induced fatigue failure in process pipework
Xi Engineering Consultants measured and modelled vibration in a refinery agitator building, pinpointed fatigue hot spots and recommended targeted structural upgrades to protect pipework and steelwork from vibration induced failure.
-
Removing structural vibrations using simulation
Xi Engineering Consultants uses targeted measurement and simulation to diagnose structural vibration problems and design practical mitigation, protecting comfort and sensitive equipment in demanding buildings.

Graham Construction : vibration monitoring to protect the performance of industrial machines
Xi Engineering Consultants monitored vibration at a critical production machine while Graham Construction worked next door, providing alarms and reports that protected equipment performance without unnecessary disruption to the build.
-
Sensitive equipment in hospitals
For a new pathology unit beside a busy road, Xi quantified ground borne vibration and compared it with limits for sensitive equipment, allowing the hospital to proceed with confidence in its microscope performance.
-
Wind turbine noise and vibration measurement
Xi Engineering Consultants has developed a safe on tower measurement system that captures high quality noise and vibration data from modern wind turbines while engineers remain on the ground.

ODS on the Queen Elizabeth aircraft carrier
On the Queen Elizabeth aircraft carrier, Xi used Operational Deflection Shape modelling to understand severe vibration on critical machinery and confirm that the proposed isolation would keep the vessel operating reliably at sea.
-
Structural dynamics and construction site surveys
From structural resonance analysis to real time site monitoring, Xi supports construction teams with clear evidence that their designs and works will perform as intended and meet regulatory expectations.
