Shaker Test
Advantages:
Persistent excitation large
energy input and high signal-tonoise ratio
Random excitation can
average out slight nonlinearities,
such as those arising from
opening and closing of cracks and
loosening of bolted joints, that can
exist in the structure and extract
the linearized parameters
Disadvantages:
Inconvenient and expensive
Additional advantages
A random impact device can be designed to excite very
large structures
It cab be used to concentrate the input power in a desired
frequency range
