Amplitude
The magnitude, or amount, of displacement, velocity, or acceleration, measured from the "at rest" value. The amplitude of a vibration signal can be expressed in terms of "peak" level, "Peak-to-peak" level, or RMS level. It is somewhat of a de facto standard that Displacement is peak-to-peak, Velocity is peak, and Acceleration is RMS.
