Random Vibration & Integration of the Normal Distribution Curve

Ideal random vibration has a normal distribution histogram.

(In contrast, measured random vibration in the field may be nonstationary and thus vary from this ideal. )

Here are some resources:

An Introduction to Random Vibration

Integration of the Normal Distribution Paper

Here is a software program written in Microsoft Visual C++ for integrating the normal distribution curve:
