New add-on to DADiSP engineering spreadsheet helps assess and control shock damage
DSP Development Corporation is pleased to announce the release of DADiSP/SRS (Shock Response Spectrum), an add-on module to the popular engineering spreadsheet package, DADiSP. DADiSP/SRS is a menu driven module designed for the analysis of the Shock Response Spectrum.
Shock Response Spectrum Analysis is a useful tool in minimising the potential damage to a component due to shock. There are many applications, including aerospace and automotive engineering, where it’s essential to evaluate and minimise potential shock damage to components. DADiSP’s powerful and flexible graphical analysis capabilites make it an ideal environment for visualising the effects of shock, and the addition of DADiSP/SRS delivers a state-of-the-art solution for assessing and controlling shock damage.
Given acceleration time history data, the DADiSP/SRS module lets you choose the best method to calculate the corresponding shock response spectrum. Analysis algorithms include Impulse Invariant, Ramp Invariant (Smallwood) and Bilinear Transform which match the Impulse Response, Ramp Response and Frequency Response respectively. Frequency Spacing options include Linear, Fractional (1/N) and Whole Octave spaced natural frequencies.
The DADiSP/SRS Module is available for use with DADiSP/2002 operating under Windows 9x, 2000, XP and NT systems. The DADiSP product range is supplied and supported in the UK and Ireland by Adept Scientific plc, Amor Way, Letchworth, Herts.
