A Vibro-Acoustic Test System for Simulation of Saturn V Dynamic Launch Environment on Major Space Vehicle Structures 670583
A description of the largest Acoustic and Vibration Test Facilities in existence for the simulation of major launch vehicle dynamic environment is given and the operational characteristics of both are discussed.
Sinusoidal and random excitation techniques are described and unique vibration control methods presented.
A comparison of the effects of vibration and acoustic excitation on major space vehicle structures is made.
