Abstract
Abstract As MIL-STD-810G, Environmental Engineering Considerations and Laboratory Tests, and subsequent versions have incorporated multiple-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) vibration test methodologies, it is important to understand the history and factors that drove the original decision in MIL-STD-810 to focus on single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) vibration testing. Examining the thought process behind early MIL-STD-810 vibration test methods is useful when considering MDOF testing now that it is feasible with today's technology and documented in MIL-STD-810. This paper delves into the details of the decision made in the 1960s to develop the SDOF vibration testing standards in MIL-STD-810 beyond the limitations of technology at the time. This paper also considers the implications for effective test planning today considering the advances in test capabilities and improvements in understanding of the operational environment.
