Quizplus · Accepted Answer

At the nodes of a shaft experiencing vibrational modes, the vibrations are zero. This is because a node is a point along a standing wave where the wave has minimal amplitude. In the context of shaft vibrations, nodes are the points of the shaft that remain stationary while the rest of the shaft may be vibrating.
