Lessons Learned – Modal Testing: Measuring Dynamic Structural Characteristics

active, Most Current
Organization: NASA
Publication Date: 18 April 2000
Status: active
Page Count: 5
scope:

Practice:

Modal testing is a structural testing practice that provides low levels of mechanical excitation to a test structure and measures its response to that excitation. This response is then analyzed to experimentally determine the dynamic structural characteristics of the test subject. Modal testing may be performed on all suitable space structures including those associated with the Orbiter and the Space Station.
