Transmissibility is the ratio of output to input.
Transmissibility (T) = output/input
T>1 means amplification and maximum amplification occurs when forcing frequency (ff) and natural frequency (fn) of the system coincide.
There is no unit designation for transmissibility, although it may sometimes be referred to as the Q factor.
The transmissibility is used in calculation of passive heave compensation efficiency.
