Experimental Verification On The Effectiveness Of Random Vibration Testing With Controlling Acceleration And Velocity Kurtosis, Daichi Nakai, Katsuhiko Saito

Journal of Applied Packaging Research

Random vibration tests for packages are conducted to confirm the safety of these packages during shipping. In our previous study, a method of generating the random vibration controlling the power spectral density and kurtosis of acceleration and the kurtosis of velocity was proposed. The aim of the present study is to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method. Three vibrations were generated in this study and compared with the real vibration, which replicates the truck bed. In the first case, control of the acceleration and velocity kurtosis was neglected. In the second case, the vibration controlling the acceleration kurtosis was …
