A radiator panel designed to ensure telecommunication satellites keep their cool in space seen during testing on the most powerful electrodynamic shaker of ESA's ESTEC Test Centre. As the capabilities ...

The American Petroleum Institute has new guidelines for testing shaker screen conductance under static conditions. The first article in this series provided a practical guide to shaker screen ...

Typically ESA's shaker tables are used to replicate the take-off vibrations of a satellite-lifting rocket. The large object seen here is not a satellite at all but an 8-tonne cooling system being ...

Many shaker controllers for random vibration testing are based on the well-established FFT data processing algorithm. A test specification is given in the frequency domain in terms of power spectral ...

Engineering researchers have developed a novel dynamic testing system for characterizing and evaluating the structural condition of short- to medium-span bridges – structures up to 300 feet long.
