Environmental testing -- Part 2-80: Tests - Test Fi: Vibration - Mixed mode

Intended for general application for testing specimens when simulation is required of vibration excitation of a complex and mixed nature. The purpose of the test is to demonstrate the adequacy of the specimen to resist the specified mixed mode excitation without unacceptable degradation of its functional and/or structural performance. It is particularly useful for tailoring mixed mode environments where measured data are available for the real life environment. The test also helps reveal the accumulated effects of stress induced by random vibration, mixed with sine and/or random, and the resulting mechanical weakness and degradation in specified performances, and to use this information, in conjunction with the relevant specification, to assess the acceptability of specimens. In some cases, this standard may also be used to demonstrate the mechanical robustness of specimens. This standard is applicable to specimens which may be subjected to vibration of a random and/or a combination of random and deterministic nature resulting from transportation or real life environments, for example in aircraft, space vehicles and for items in their transportation container when the latter may be considered as part of the specimen itself. Although primarily intended for electrotechnical specimens, this standard is not restricted to such specimens and may be used in other fields where desired.

Essais d'environnement -- Partie 2-80: Essais - Essai Fi: Vibration - Mode mixte

Destinée à une application générale aux essais des spécimens lorsqu'une simulation d'excitation de vibrations complexes et mixtes est nécessaire. L'objectif de l'essai est de prouver l'adéquation du spécimen à résister aux excitations spécifiées en mode mixte sans provoquer de dégradation inacceptable de ses performances fonctionnelles et/ou structurelles. Cet essai est particulièrement utile pour adapter des environnements en mode mixte à l'environnement réel lorsque les données mesurées sont disponibles. L'essai permet également de révéler les effets accumulés des contraintes induites par les vibrations aléatoires, combinées sinus et/ou bruit, ainsi que la faiblesse et la dégradation mécaniques qui en résultent au niveau de la performance spécifiée, et d'utiliser ces informations associées aux spécifications particulières pour évaluer l'acceptabilité des spécimens. Dans certains cas, la présente norme peut également servir à prouver la robustesse mécanique des spécimens. La présente norme s'applique à des spécimens qui peuvent être soumis à des vibrations aléatoires et/ou à une combinaison de vibrations aléatoires et déterministes dues à l'environnement de transport ou à l'environnement réel, par exemple dans les avions ou les véhicules spatiaux ou dans les éléments du conteneur de transport lorsque celui-ci est considéré comme partie intégrante du spécimen. Bien qu'elle soit principalement destinée aux spécimens électrotechniques, la présente norme ne se limite pas à ces derniers et peut être utilisée dans d'autres domaines le cas échéant.

INTRODUCTION
This method for mixed mode vibration testing requires the digital control of broadband random
vibrations and techniques associated with the combination of sinusoidal vibration and/or
specified narrowband random with a broadband random background.
This standard is intended for general application to components, equipment and other
products, hereinafter referred to as ”specimens”, when simulation is required of broadband
responses of a complex nature for the specimens.
The test method is based primarily on the use of an electrodynamic or a servo-hydraulic
vibration generator with an associated computer based control system used as a vibration
testing system.
It is emphasized that mixed mode testing always demands a certain degree of engineering
judgement and both supplier and purchaser should be fully aware of this fact. The writer
of the relevant specification is expected to select the testing procedure and the values of
severity appropriate to the specimen and its use.

ENVIRONMENTAL TESTING –

Part 2-80: Tests – Test Fi: Vibration – Mixed mode



1 Scope
This part of IEC 60068 is intended for general application for testing specimens when
simulation is required of vibration excitation of a complex and mixed nature.
The purpose of the test is to demonstrate the adequacy of the specimen to resist the specified
mixed mode excitation without unacceptable degradation of its functional and/or structural
performance. It is particularly useful for tailoring mixed mode environments where measured
data are available for the real life environment.
The test also helps reveal the accumulated effects of stress induced by random vibration,
mixed with sine and/or random, and the resulting mechanical weakness and degradation in
specified performances, and to use this information, in conjunction with the relevant
specification, to assess the acceptability of specimens. In some cases, this standard may also
be used to demonstrate the mechanical robustness of specimens.
This standard is applicable to specimens which may be subjected to vibration of a random
and/or a combination of random and deterministic nature resulting from transportation or real
life environments, for example in aircraft, space vehicles and for items in their transportation
container when the latter may be considered as part of the specimen itself.
Although primarily intended for electrotechnical specimens, this standard is not restricted to
such specimens and may be used in other fields where desired.

The additional terms and definitions that follow are also applicable.
3.1
cross axis motion
motion not in the direction of the external stimulus, generally specified in the two orthogonal
axes
3.2
actual motion
motion represented by the wideband signal returned from the reference point transducer
3.3
fixing point
part of the specimen in contact with the fixture or vibration table at a point where the
specimen is normally fastened in service
NOTE If a part of the real mounting structure is used as the fixture, the fixing points are taken as those of the
mounting structure and not of the specimen.
3.4
control point
3.4.1
single point control
control method using the signal from the transducer at the reference point in order to maintain
this point at the specified vibration level
3.4.2
multipoint control
control method using the signals from each of the transducers at the check points. The
signals are either continuously averaged arithmetically or processed by using comparison
techniques, depending upon the relevant specification, see also 3.9
3.5
g

3.6
measuring points
specific points at which data are gathered for conducting the test. These points are of three
types, as defined below
3.6.1
check point
point located on the fixture, on the vibration table or on the specimen as close as possible to
one of its fixing points, and in any case rigidly connected to it
NOTE 1 A number of check points are used as a means of ensuring that the test requirements are satisfied.
NOTE 2 If four or fewer fixing points exist, each is used as a check point. If more than four fixing points exist, four
representative fixing points will be defined in the relevant specification to be used as check points.
NOTE 3 In special cases, for example for large or complex specimens, the check points will be prescribed by the
relevant specification if not close to the fixing points.
NOTE 4 Where a large number of small specimens are mounted on one fixture, or in the case of a small specimen
where there are a number of fixing points, a single check point (that is the reference point) may be selected for the
derivation of the control signal. This signal is then related to the fixture rather than to the fixing points of
the specimen(s). This procedure is only valid when the lowest resonance frequency of the loaded fixture is well
above the upper frequency of the test.
3.6.2
reference point
point, chosen from the check points, signal of which is used to control the test, such that the
requirements of this standard are satisfied

ratio of the peak value to the r.m.s. value of the complex mixed-mode waveform
[ISO 2041]
3.12
super positional strategy
strategy which defines the method for calculating the reference acceleration spectral density
at each frequency line from the sine tones and the random ASD

the maximum response when associated with a single resonance peak
3.14
acceleration spectral density
ASD
mean-square value of that part of an acceleration signal passed by a narrowband filter of a
centre frequency, per unit bandwidth, to the extent that the bandwidth approaches zero and

to the finite frequency resolution used in practice. For the sinusoidal signal, systematic error
in the estimate of the amplitude of the sinusoidal component within the mixed mode signal
due to the averaging time
3.16
control acceleration spectral density
acceleration spectral density measured at the reference point or the fictitious point
3.17
control system loop
