  2. Impulse excitation technique - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impulse_excitation_technique

    The impulse excitation technique (IET) is a non-destructive material characterization technique to determine the elastic properties and internal friction of a material of interest. [1] It measures the resonant frequencies in order to calculate the Young's modulus , shear modulus , Poisson's ratio and internal friction of predefined shapes like ...

  3. Impulse facility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impulse_facility

    An impulse facility is a testing facility that relies on rapid release of stored energy to generate a short period of high enthalpy test conditions for testing of aerodynamic flow, aerodynamic heating and atmospheric reentry, combustion, chemical kinetics, ballistics, and other effects. The rapid release of energy can result in very high ...

  5. Modal testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modal_testing

    Modal impact hammer with interchangeable tips and accompanying temporal and frequency responses. An ideal impact to a structure is a perfect impulse, which has an infinitely small duration, causing a constant amplitude in the frequency domain; this would result in all modes of vibration being excited with equal energy.

  6. Shock (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_(mechanics)

    This abrupt change in direction causes a rapid velocity change which creates the shock impulse. Testing the effects of shock are sometimes conducted on end-use applications: for example, automobile crash tests. Use of proper test methods and Verification and validation protocols are important for all phases of testing and evaluation.

  7. Leeb rebound hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leeb_rebound_hardness_test

    The Leeb Rebound Hardness Test (LRHT) invented by Swiss company Proceq SA is one of the four most used methods for testing metal hardness. This portable method is mainly used for testing sufficiently large workpieces (mainly above 1 kg).

  8. Rocket propellant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_propellant

    The primary specific impulse advantage of liquid propellants is due to the availability of high-performance oxidizers. Several practical liquid oxidizers ( liquid oxygen , dinitrogen tetroxide , and hydrogen peroxide ) are available which have better specific impulse than the ammonium perchlorate used in most solid rockets when paired with ...

  9. Multistage testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multistage_testing

    Multistage testing is an algorithm-based approach to administering tests. It is very similar to computer-adaptive testing in that items are interactively selected for each examinee by the algorithm, but rather than selecting individual items, groups of items are selected, building the test in stages.
