8、 Test Method4.1 The fundamental resonant frequencies are determinedusing one of two alternative procedures:(1)the forced reso-nance method or(2)the impact resonance method.Regardlessof which testing procedure is selected,the same procedure is tobe used for all specimens of an associated series.4.2 I
9、n the forced resonance method,a supported specimen isforced to vibrate by an electro-mechanical driving unit.Thespecimen response is monitored by a lightweight pickup uniton the specimen.The driving frequency is varied until themeasured specimen response reaches a maximum amplitude.The value of the
10、frequency causing maximum response is theresonant frequency of the specimen.The fundamental frequen-cies for the three different modes of vibration are obtained byproper location of the driver and the pickup unit.4.3 In the impact resonance method,a supported specimenis struck with a small impactor
11、and the specimen response ismeasured by a lightweight accelerometer on the specimen.Theoutput of the accelerometer is recorded.The fundamentalfrequency of vibration is determined by using digital signalprocessing methods or counting zero crossings in the recordedwaveform.The fundamental frequencies
