Vibration Test
Vibration testing determines the dynamic effects on component part of vibration within the frequency ranges and magnitudes that may be encountered during field service. Vibration, for example, causes loosening of parts or relative motion between parts in the specimen, producing objectionable operating characteristics, noise, wear, and physical distortion, and often results in fatigue and failure of mechanical parts.

Electrostatic Discharge Test
The electrostatic discharge test is designed to determine the ability of equipment to perform its intended function without permanent degradation of performance as a result of an air discharged electrostatic pulse. Electrostatic discharge is the result of an unbalanced electrical charge. Typically, it is created by insulator surfaces rubbing together or pulling apart. A transfer of electrostatic charge between bodies (materials, components, etc.) at different electrostatic potentials is caused by direct contact.

Highly Accelerated Life (HALT) Test
HALT consists of high and low temperature and 3 axis vibration testing performed either individually or in combination.Highly accelerated life testing is performed to identify design weaknesses and problems prior to production. HALT subjects equipment to overstress conditions at a level which does affect life, but offers an advantage by reducing the design and development phases of a program.

Electromagnetic Interference Test
Electromagnetic interference (also known as radio frequency interference) tests are used to determine the electromagnetic characteristics of electrical, electronic, and electro-mechanical equipment. Electromagnetic interference, both radiated or conducted, can affect the performance of equipment. Electromagnetic interference tests are specified as follows: conducted emission, radiated emission, conducted susceptibility, and radiated susceptibility.

Noise Test
Noise testing is conducted to determine if materials can withstand external noises generated by various sources. It also includes air-borne and structure-borne noise measurements.

product
Acceleration Testing
The acceleration test is performed on a centrifuge to assure that material can structurally withstand the steady state inertia loads that are induced by platform acceleration, deceleration, and maneuver in the service environment, and can function without degradation during and following exposure to these forces. Acceleration tests are also used to assure that material does not become hazardous after exposure to crash loads. The acceleration test method is applicable to material that is installed in mobile platforms such as aircraft, helicopters, aerospace vehicles, air-carried stores, ground-launched missiles, trains, ships, automotive vehicles, etc.

Shock Test
Shock testing determines the ability of equipment to withstand the infrequent non-repetitive shocks encountered in handling, transportation, and service and to continue to function, where required. Also, shock tests verify that equipment will not detach from its mounting during these tests.

Solar Radiation (Sunshine) Test
This test determines the effects of direct solar radiation on components and material. The heating effects of solar radiation differ from those of high air temperature in that the amount of heat absorbed depends on the roughness and color of the surface on which the radiation is incident and the angle of incidence to the sun. Variations in the intensity of solar radiation over the surface of the component, may cause components to expand or contract at different rates, which can lead to severe stresses and loss of structural integrity. In addition, degradation due to photo-chemical changes can occur such as fading of color, deterioration of natural and synthetic elastomers and polymers. The test items that are subjected to solar radiation testing are those that are exposed to solar radiation during its life cycle, in the open, in warm climates.

Enclosures
An enclosure is a mechanical item which either partly or wholly surrounds a component or assembly. Enclosure tests determine the suitability of equipment enclosures and sealing design techniques to provide various functions, including the following: Physical and environmental protection to the enclosed items. Protection from items within the enclosure to personnel or objects outside the enclosure.Means for ventilating items within the enclosure. Means for cooling items within the enclosure. Sealing equipment to protect against leakage, both internal and external. Enclosures are designed to provide various degree of protection.
