73rd Shock & Vibration Symposium

The annual Shock and Vibration Symposium is the leading forum for the structural dynamics and vibration community to present and discuss new developments and on-going research. The Symposium was established in 1947 and includes both classified and unclassified sessions. The classified sessions allow critical technology and classified (up to secret level) research to be presented in closed forums of cleared US Government and government-contractor researchers. Topics covered at the symposium include shock-ship testing, water shock, weapons effects (air blast, ground shock, cratering, penetration) shock physics, earthquake engineering, structural dynamics, and shock and vibration instrumentation and experiment techniques. Between 100 - 200  technical papers are typically presented. Panel discussions address topics such as new software developments or accelerometer isolation problems. Tutorials provide up-to-date technology overviews by leading specialists.

The 73rd Shock & Vibration Symposium was held the week of November 18 - 22, 2002 at The Viking Hotel in Newport, RI.  The featured government agency was the Naval Sea Systems Command Underwater Warfare Center (NUWC).  General Dynamics Electric Boat Corporation (EB) was the featured company.
