Abstract
A method is presented for measuring mechanical resonant frequencies of heavy structures. This method employs only one electromechanical transducer which alternates as driver and receiver. We present results obtained with a superconducting magnet to demonstrate the applicability of the method: The resonant frequencies of the magnet shift with current, which affects stress.Keywords
