Characteristics
of
shock response spectra
69
For
shocks
of
simple shape,
the
instant
of
time
t at
which
the
first peak
of the
response takes place tends towards
,
tends towards zero [FUN 57].
The
primary positive spectrum
of
pseudovelocities has,
a
slope
of 6
dB/octave
at
the low
frequencies.

Example
3.2.3.
Shocks
for AV = 0 and AD * 0 at end
of
pulse
In
this
case,
for £, = 0 :
- The
Fourier transform
of
the
velocity
for f = 0,
V(0),
is
equal
to
Since acceleration
is the first
derivative
of
velocity,
the
residual spectrum
is
equal
to co
0
AD for low
values
of
co
0
.
The
undamped residual shock response
spectrum thus
has a
slope equal
to 2
(i.e.
12
dB/octave)
in
this range.
