Shock and Vibration Testing - Current Theory and Uncertainties

Abstract

The report presents a review of current shock and vibration testing technology, based upon literature study, conferences with testing personnel and shock and vibration experts, and the personal experiences of the author. The technological frontiers of the many aspects of shock and vibration testing are outlined. Those areas of research which would most significantly improve reliability or economy are indicated. The report also indicates those practices and theories which are not based upon fact and necessarily involve uncertainties.
