9 Mode 1 f n = 131 Hz Dynamic Analysis Mode 2 f n = 171 Hz Finite Element Analysis of Isogrid Side Panel (Without Skin)

10 Dynamic Analysis Mode 1 f n = 249 Hz Finite Element Analysis of Complete Isogrid Structure (Without Skin)

11 Dynamic Analysis Mode 2 f n = 263 Hz Finite Element Analysis of Complete Isogrid Structure (Without Skin)

12  Requirement: First mode natural frequency: >100 Hz  Results: First mode natural frequency: 74.6 Hz  Solution: Stiffen joints around attachment points to raise first mode natural frequency ~100Hz Dynamic Analysis Finite Element Analysis of Complete ION-F Stack

13 Fabrication Composite structure comprised of 0.23” isogrid and 0.02” skin

14  Static test  Stiffness test to simulate expected loading conditions during launch  Sine sweep test  Vibration test to determine free and fixed-base natural frequency  Sine burst test  Vibration test to verify structural strength at extreme loads  Random vibration test  Vibration test to verify structural integrity Test Requirements  Random Vibe Requirements:

15 Strength & stiffness test of structure without skin panels Strength & stiffness test of loading fixture Static Testing

16 Strength & stiffness test of structure with skin panels Static Testing Experiment demonstrated a 32% gain in stiffness in the cantilever mode due to addition of skins Skins added less than 8% to the total mass

17 Dynamic Testing Modal (tap) Testing of Side Panels Hammer provides impulsive input Accelerometer measures accelerations used to characterize natural frequencies Tap testing with and without skins Verification of predictions of finite element analysis

18 Mode 1 f n = 131 Hz (vs 131 Hz predicted) Mode 2 f n = 169 Hz (vs 171 Hz predicted) Dynamic Testing Modal Testing of Side Panels (Without Skin)

19 Dynamic Testing Mode 1 f n = 213 Hz (vs 131 Hz without skin) Mode 2 f n = 453 Hz (vs 169 Hz without skin) Modal Testing of Side Panels (With Skin)

20 Modal Testing of Structure (Without Skins) Dynamic Testing Mode 1 f n = 245 Hz (vs 249 Hz predicted) Mode 2 f n = 272 Hz (vs 263 Hz predicted)
