Synthesizing a Half-Sine Pulse to Satisfy an SRS

Testing to Shock Response Spectrum (SRS) specifications is usually performed using complex oscillating waveforms.  This is also true for analytical simulation  in the time domain. There are several reasons for this. Complex oscillating pulses can typically meet both the positive and negative SRS for a… Read more
