    Peak to peak veloctiy conversion, please help

    Thanks for your help electricpete. I really appreciate it! I was mistaken. I was trying to convert 1.48 mm/s peak particle velocity (PPV) not peak to peak. Therefore it is just a straight conversion from metric to imperial. 1.48 mm/s (PPV)= 0.058 in/s(PPV). I beleive this is correct now.

    Peak to peak veloctiy conversion, please help

    Thanks electricpete for your help. In my case I am referring heavy truck traffic creating ground vibrations which are being felt inside people's homes. I am trying to find out exactly how bothersome these vibrations are. Also, I would like to know if they could cause structural damage to the...

    Peak to peak veloctiy conversion, please help

    Hello. I have received conflicting answers about converting peak to peak particle velocity values from mm/sec to in/sec. I am referring to peak to peak particle velocity in terms of building vibration. The value I am trying to convert is 1.48 mm/sec peak to peak particle velocity. Is it a...
