VIBRATION PSD OF LAUNCH AND MAX Q FLIGHT DATA

SECTION I

SUMMARY DATA

, . Volume I1 presents Power Spectral Density .analyses of vibration measure- ments made on the spacecraft section of the first , third and fourth launch flights of the Titan Centaur Launch Vehicles. The spacecraft carr ied were the Viking Eynamic Simulator (VDS), and the f i r s t and second Viking Spacecraft. The data i s for two locations on the spacecraft: (1) the center of gravity of the Viking Lander Capsule, and (2) several points on the Viking Orbiter Bus. The Viking Lander Capsule c. g. data was obtained through transformations of adapter s t rain gage measurements and contains data in the 0-40 Hertz frequency band. The Bus data is f rom both crystal and servo accelerometers and provides data in the 0-2000 Hertz range. The Bus i s the pr imary structural assembly of the Viking Orbiter and the data i s more representative of structure response rather than component response. All of the data was telemetered on IRIG Proportional Subcarr ier Bands, however nonstandard filtering was used in playback to enhance the frequency content of the data.

Volume I1 i s contained in four sections.

Section 1 summarizes a l l of the data into composite and envelope PSD plots.

Section 2 contains individual PSD plots and associated time histories f rom the f i r s t launch, carrying the Viking Dynamic Simulator.

Section 3 and 4 contain the individual data f rom the two Viking Spacecraft.

Measurement locations, telemetry channel assignments, filter usage and 'measurement identification notations a r e contained in Sections 2, 3 and 4 with the respective spacecraft.

All of the data processing contained in this report was performed a t the Langley Research Center by the Analysis and Computations Division and their contractors. The computer program used for the PSD is the NASA Langley Signal Analysis Program (Reference 1). The program uses Blackrnan- Tukey- F a s t Fourier Transform techniques.
