Abstract
When designing a laboratory shock test to simulate a shock environment measured in the field, the SRS serves as a common reference. If the two SRS are the same, then the laboratory test is considered to be representative and have the same damage potential as the field environment. But, what does it mean for two SRS to be the same? What features in the SRS are most important to represent faithfully in the laboratory environment? Another question is: how can the component designer use the SRS to make design decisions to make the part robust to shock. To answer this question, one again must know what features of the SRS are important and how to use them in component design. In Chap. 4, we briefly discussed how to assess the potential severity of shock excitation on a structure when we introduced the SRS. In this chapter, we expand on that to answer those questions and assist the component designer in passing shock tests.
