Vibration Levels in Army Helicopters--Measurement Recommendations and Data
Abstract
Surveys on vibration levels found in currently fielded helicopters were used to prepare a comparative summary of vibration exposure levels at crew stations and of the test methods used to measure these levels. This effort was initiated at the request of the Air Standardization Coordinating Committee (ASCC) Working Party 61 and because of the wide variety of methods used in data capture and instrumentation documentation. Sources of the literature reviewed included technical reports of U.S. Government agencies and papers in open literature. Articles were reviewed based upon three criteria: (1) quantitative description of vibration in currently fielded U.S. Army rotary winged aircraft, (2) article contents are unclassified and available for publication in open literature, (3) article describes human exposure levels of aircraft vibration.
