    Description: The Space Transportation System (STS) is a very complex and expensive flight system which is intended to carry payloads into low Earth orbit and return. A catastrophic failure of the STS (such as experienced in the 51-L incident) results in the loss of both human life as well as very expensive hardware. One impact of this incident was to reaffirm the need to do everything possible to insure the integrity and reliability of the STS is sufficient to produce a safe flight. One means of achieving this goal is to expand the number of inspection technologies available for use on the STS. The purpose was to begin to evaluate the possible use of assessing the structural integrity of STS components for which Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) has responsibility. This entailed reviewing the available literature and determining a low-level experimental program which could be performed by MSFC and would help establish the feasibility of using this technology for structural fault detection.

    Description: The Space Transportation System (STS) is a complex and expensive flight system intended to carry unique payloads into low Earth orbit and return. A catastrophic failure, such as STS 51-L, resulted in the loss of both human life as well as expensive and unique hardware. The impact of this incident reaffirms the need to do everything possible to ensure the integrity and reliability of STS. One means of achieving this goal is to expand the number of inspection technologies available. Reported here is the evaluation of the use of modal analysis and test techniques for the purpose of assessing the structural integrity of STS components for which Marshall Space Flight Center has responsibility. This entailed reviewing existing literature and developing a low-level experimental program determine the feasibility of using this technology for structural fault detection.
