Feasibility of a Transient Dynamic Design Analysis Method
Abstract
This article addresses the degree of success that may be achieved by using simple equipment–vehicle models that produce time history responses whose equipment fixed base modal maximum response values are equivalent to those found in the U.S. Navy's dynamic design analysis method. The criteria of success is measured by a comparison of the results with typical interim shock design values. The equipment models reported are limited to two- degree and three degrees of freedom systems; the model of the vehicle to which the equipment is attached consists solely of a rigid mass and an elastic spring; and the shock excitation is produced by an ideal impulse that is applied to the vehicle mass.
