Subsequent to development of the LVTS, it is generally of interest to analyze response dynamics of the unit under test (UUT) prior to conducting a laboratory test. In the absence of a detailed mechanical model of the UUT, one might consider use of the Maximum Response Spectrum (MRS) model. The basic concept of MRS analysis and defining mathematics are detailed in Annex F, Appendix E. In the event maximum response levels exceed design targets, it is recommended that a thorough review of both the LVTS variables and details of the design targets be conducted prior to initiating the laboratory test.
