An analytical study of a vibration test method using extremal control of acceleration and force
A vibration test method has been proposed where control is accomplished using extremal control of the force and acceleration at the input to a test item. This proposal is examined with several examples. The method does limit the acceleration input at frequencies where the test item responses tend to be unrealistically large. However, the method's application is not straightforward and care must be taken in the application of the method. 9 refs., 16 figs.
