[Development of a shock response spectrum test facility].
OBJECTIVE
To develop a shock response spectrum test facility for testing space products in the pyrotechnic environments.


METHODS
The natural frequencies of the resonant plate, a key part of the facility, were calculated with finite element method. The dynamic response of the whole system was simulated when the machine was excited by a real shock generated by a dropping hammer. A shock response spectrum test facility was developed under the guide of the simulation results.


RESULTS
The resonant plate drop machine could simulate pyrotechnic shock by adjusting the force, the natural frequencies of the plate and the damping materials above and under the plate.


CONCLUSIONS
The agreement between the measurement and the simulation indicates that the computer simulation results are reliable. It is feasible to use the resonant plate drop machine to simulate pyrotechnic environment.
