Abstract:

A Research Test of Recorder, Velocity Shock, Electronic, was conducted to collect data pertinent to the shipping environment of a normal rail shipment. This enabled the Natick Laboratories to determine the operational reliability of the test item under actual field conditions. The test also included a determination of the shock input to the test containers during rail transport and the magnitude and frequency of its occurrence relative to the number of miles traversed.
