Vibration and Mechanical Stress Testing: From Fundamentals to Test Execution

This course provides the essential knowledge for understanding and executing robust vibration and mechanical stress tests, ensuring product resilience in dynamic environments. The core outcome is the ability to create and justify vibration test profiles that accurately simulate and validate a product's performance against actual field conditions.
