Standardized Laboratory Test Requirements for Hardening Equipment to Withstand Wave Impact Shock in Small High Speed Craft

Abstract

This report documents standardized laboratory test requirements to minimize the risk of equipment malfunction or failure due to shock forces caused by wave impacts in high-speed craft. The engineering rationale, assumptions, and methodology for transitioning craft acceleration data to laboratory shock test requirements are summarized and example requirements for procurement documents are presented.
