Kurtosion® Patent Issued
Vibration Research Corporation (VRC) announces that US Patent
7,426,426,
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SIMULTANEOUSLY CONTROLLING SPECTRUM AND KURTOSIS OF A RANDOM VIBRATION,
has been issued to Philip D. Van Baren and assigned to VRC. According to company President,
John Van Baren, "This patent protects our unique Kurtosion® control, a means of performing random
tests that have more severe amplitude distributions than Gaussian noise provides, to better
simulate measured product environments. Unlike prior methods, Kurtosion® provides controlled
kurtosis while maintaining the dynamic range and full amplitude and phase randomness of the signal
and it applies the more severe amplitude distributions across the entire control spectrum. Since
Kurtosion® is a significant new advancement for vibration control, we recognized that the methods
involved needed to be properly disclosed in order to be understood and accepted by the testing
community. This patent provides an avenue for this disclosure while protecting our legal
rights to the method."
