Apparatus and methods for determining the instability of equipment by measuring the reaction forces at different points at the base of the equipment are disclosed. A plurality of load sensors are symmetrically arranged at the base of the equipment. A Cartesian coordinate system is then imposed on the base of the equipment with the center of the base being the origin of the Cartesian coordinate system. The X-axis and the Y-axis of the Cartesian coordinate system are arranged to define a plane corresponding to the base of the equipment. Each load sensor is then designated with Cartesian coordinates and the reaction force at each load sensor is determined. An overall instability factor for the equipment is then determined from the Cartesian coordinates of each load sensor and the reaction force at that load sensor.

L'invention concerne un appareil et des procédés pour déterminer l'instabilité d'un équipement par la mesure des forces de réaction à différents points à la base dudit équipement. Plusieurs capteurs de charge sont disposés de façon symétrique à la base de l'équipement. Un système de coordonnées cartésiennes est ensuite imposé sur la base de l'équipement, le centre de la base étant l'origine du système de coordonnées cartésiennes. L'axe X et l'axe Y dudit système définissent un plan correspondant à la base de l'équipement. Chaque capteur de charge est ensuite désigné par des coordonnées cartésiennes et la force de réaction à chaque capteur de charge est déterminée. Un facteur d'instabilité global pour l'équipement est alors déterminé à partir des coordonnées cartésiennes de chaque capteur de charge ainsi que la force de réaction audit capteur de charge.
