Key technologies disclosure for the high-g shock tester based on collision principle and experimental study.

The shock tester based on a three-body, single-level velocity amplifier is especially suitable for high-g shock tests of lightweight and compact pieces. This study focuses on disclosing some key technologies that affect whether the velocity amplifier could achieve a high-g level shock experimental environment. Equations describing the first collision are deduced and some key design criteria are proposed.

Theoretical and experimental study of the "superelastic collision effects" used to excite high-g shock environment.

The excitation technology for high-g-level shock environment experiments is currently a topic of interest, for which velocity amplification by collisions of vertically stacked bodies has been used to develop high-g shock tests with great success. This study investigated the superelastic collision effects generated during high-velocity one-dimensional three-body impacts. Theoretical formulae were derived in brief for an analytical investigation of the collisions.
