Mr. Richardson is a junior associate of Vibro-Acoustic Consultants.
He recently completed his Masters of Science degree at the Graduate Program
in Acoustics at Penn State University (PSU). His graduate thesis explored
the acoustic applications of nanowire arrays. This work entailed extensive
time with sensitive nanofabrication and characterization equipment such as
e-beam lithography, scanning electron microscopes, and atomic force microscopes.
Before graduate school, Kevin worked for Schlumberger Oilfield Services
in Louisiana, US, Thailand, and Oman as a senior field engineer. His expertise
in seismic and other acoustic tools was applied under challenging and diverse
environments on offshore and land-based rigs.
In 2001, Kevin earned his Bachelor of Science degree
from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology
(MIT). For his undergraduate thesis, he studied shear vibrations of offshore oil risers
and became proficient in the industry benchmark modeling program, Shear7.
At Vibro-Acoustic Consultants, Mr. Richardson
assists projects involving detailed noise
and vibration measurement, theoretical environmental noise
modeling, in-situ acoustical treatments, HVAC design for acoustic
performance, long-term noise and vibration monitoring, impact
modal testing of structures, shaker-excitation dynamic testing
of large structures and more.
