September 2011 – Earthquake data recorded with third octave band filter monitoring
On 08.09.2011 in the evening our monitoring system with third octave band filter has recorded an earthquake that took place in Bochum at 21:00 h. The alarm was triggered horizontally by an extraordinary high vibration amplitude (exceeding the human sensation limit).
February 2011 – Research on Elastic Sleeper Pads
We are involved with a new research project which is initiated to determine the vibration isolating effects of Elasic Sleeper Pads.
These pads are fixed under rail track sleepers to minimise vibrations during train passage for instance.
For significant results we verify our measurements with the Dynpact ® exitaion system.

Januar 2011 – Seminar „Structural Dynamics“ (RUB)
Every year Dr. Heiland invites his students from University Bochum to an in-situ measuring tutorial.
This time it was two constructions to be measured: Bochum's well known „Erzbahnschwinge“ footbridge and our office building for measurement of traffic vibrations.
The task was interesting for both students and tutor. The following colloquium was fair challenge.
