Selection of appropriate test method for simulating steady-state spacecraft launch loadsIn ground testing prior to launch the static loads portion of the launch profile may be simulated by either applying static loads directly to the spacecraft through an appropriate loading facility or by subjecting the spacecraft to acceleration loads on a centrifuge. The factors to be considered in selecting one of the two simulation methods are discussed, giving attention to the relative advantages of the two methods in each case.
