September 2002


The September issue of S&V is devoted to Equipment Reliability. Feature articles cover machinery reliability and machinery vibration. The S&V Observer covers the history of instabilities in rotor dynamics and how theory and practice did not always agree. The editorial considers the underachievement of condition assessment and condition-based maintenance. A letter to the editor and several news items round out the editorial content, including an announcement of the First Pan- American/Iberian Meeting on Acoustics, to be held the first week of December in Cancun, Mexico.
