NASA-HDBK-7004B Force Limited Vibration Testing

National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). This Technical Handbook approved by NASA January 31, 2003. 37 p. This handbook establishes a methodology for conducting force limited vibration tests for all NASA flight projects. The purpose is to provide an approach which may be consistently followed by those desiring to use force limiting, without having to conduct an extensive literature search or research and development effort before conducting the test. A monograph on Force Limited Vibration Testing is available for reference and is recommended for those needing more detailed technical information (NASA-RP-1403).
