Abstract

The noise and structural dynamics laboratories at Boeing provide a wide range of test and measurement services to the Boeing Company. Test data from these laboratories support all phases of the product life cycle across a diverse line of products and applications. The noise laboratory facilities include a low-speed free-jet acoustic wind tunnel, several anechoic and reverberation test chambers, a critical listening facility, and a materials test center. These facilities are supported with a network of data systems for in-lab testing and a variety of transportable data systems for field- and airplane-based testing. Structural dynamics laboratory facilities include large strongbacks and structural floors for component vibration testing, sonic fatigue test facilities, and vibration test facilities. These facilities are supported by a network of dedicated data systems for a wide range of modal, shock, vibration, and fatigue testing. Field tests are supported by a wide range of portable data systems and instrumentation trailers capable of large channel count measurements. This work will provide an overview of the test facilities and measurement capabilities of these laboratories.
