Accelerance Decoupling: Removing the Influence of the Mobile Launcher from the Space Launch System Integrated Modal Test

Main objective for launch vehicle (LV) modal testing is to quantify the LV’s modal properties in the free-free state (i.e., post pad separation). Given the size of most LVs, free-free testing is a challenge and often not feasible. A test stand, typically the launch pad itself, is utilized as the means to support the LV an Integrated Modal Test (IMT). This shifts the challenge to developing robust numerical methods for removing the influence of the launch pad from the IMT. Preferably fully test driven (method’s that operate based on measured data only). The Accelerance Decoupling (AD) approach, developed and verified by NASA and ASD, is a method with the capability to “subtract out” the influence of the test stand from the IMT using measured data only
