AbstractThe aim of a transfer path analysis (TPA) is to view the transmission of vibrations in a mechanical system from the point of excitation over interface points to a reference point. For that matter, the Frequency Response Functions (FRF) of a system or the Transmissibility Matrix is determined and examined in conjunction with the interface forces at the transfer path. This paper will cover the application of an operational TPA for a wind turbine model. In doing so the path contribution of relevant transfer paths are made visible and can be optimized individually.
