The Phyphox Practical Exercise enables students to conduct vibration experiments in self-study. When conducting the experiments, measurement data is recorded using the sensor technology of the smartphone via the phyphox app. The measurement data is then analyzed using Jupyter notebooks via Python on the JupyterHub of RWTH Aachen University.

Motivation

Based on the course content from Fundamentals of Dynamics of Machines and Structural Dynamics, short GMSD the Practical Exercise Phyphox offers students the opportunity to gain initial practical experience in the field of measurement data acquisition and evaluation.

Aim

The aim of the Practical Exercise Phyphox is to apply the contents of Fundamentals of Machine and Structural Dynamics in practice and thus to deepen them. Thus, the practical relevance of the taught content is clarified.

Approach

The vibration experiments are designed for holistic self-study. The experiments can be set up and carried out at home using everyday objects. Special measurement technology can be dispensed with, as the smartphone is used for measurement data acquisition. The web-based measurement data evaluation via the JupyterHub of RWTH Aachen is end-device independent and does not require the installation of any development environments.
