Objectives • Design, Build, And Test A Vibration Suppression System To Counteract Launch Vehicle Vibrations • Measure The Vibration Environment Inside The Terrier-Orion Rocket • Will Use Two Identical Vibration Measurement Systems • A Custom Built Passive Damping System • Rigidly Attached System • Compare The Designed Passive System Vs. The Rigidly Mounted Undamped System
Review Of Last Year’s Launch Data 1st phase boost 2nd phase boost Chute deploy Z High range acceleration Anomoly? Design problem is to reduce these spikes on both graphs
Benefits • Efficient Vibration Isolation Systems For Small Payloads • Increased Operational Performance Of Onboard Sensing Equipment • Better Protection Of The Sensing Equipment
Concept Of Operations RBF Wires Connected System Deactivated Flash Memory Activated Rocket Launch Level Translator Activated Payload Retrieval Microcontroller Activated G-Switch Activated Z Accelerometers Activated Rocket Splash
System Schematics • Main Board • Consists Power Supply System • Basic Stamp Microcontroller • External ADC, Memory
System Schematics • Z-Axis Acclerometers • Consists Of Hi-G And Precision Accelerometer
Structure • Two Plates Containing Identical Electronic Equipment On Each • Comparison Of The Designed Vibration System With That Of A Rigidly Mounted Identical Measurement System
Subsystem Requirements • Power (For Each Identical System) • Two 9V Lithium Ion Batteries Connected In Parallel • Provides Continuous Power Throughout Entire Flight • Voltage Regulators Will Step Voltage Down To 5 And 3.3V
