The web based laboratory setup allows one to perform selected experiments remotely from another computer. Using a standard web browser and a connection to the internet, one can input specific required parameters for the experiment being executed. After some time, the results can be viewed in HTML or downloaded in text format. Some experiments have audio and video streams available for visual inspection.
Experiment 1: Mechanical Vibration systems
There are five experiments that are currently running for the Mechanical vibrations systems lab. Experiment 1A - free vibration with initial displacement, Experiment 1B - step response and Experiment 1C - frequency response, all can be run under the one degree of freedom system while Experiment 1E - step response and Experiment 1F - frequency response can be run under the two degrees of freedom system. All the Mechanical vibrations systems experiments have Video streams available and the results can viewed in HTML or downloaded in text format.

Experiment 3: Duct Acoustic System
The Duct Acoustics system is currently running the muffler insertion loses experiment. Experiment 3A- Generated input Waveform, allows the user to input the specifications of the input wave, such as the type of wave (sine, square, triangular or white noise), the frequency of the wave, the sampling rate and also whether the user wants to run the experiment under a straight pipe or a muffler insert. Experiment 3B - recorded input waveform allows the user to specify where they want the recorded input waveform to be uploaded. The duct acoustics experiment has an audio stream available and the results from this experiment can also be viewed in HTML and downloaded in text format.
