Abstract

Consideration is given to analysis and design techniques that are presently available for evaluating the mechanical design integrity of electronic equipment for reliable operation in severe thermal, vibration, and shock environments. These techniques can be considered as the tools that are required to implement an avionics integrity program (AVIP) successfully. These tools are a knowledge of fatigue damage, physical properties of materials, and methods for determining thermal and vibration forces and stresses. It is shown how these tools can be used to ensure the mechanical design integrity and reliability of the avionic equipment required to operate in harsh military environments for extended time periods
