| Earthquake Testing |
 |
| Dynamic testing to simulate earthquake motion is performed in the laboratory utilizing either a single axis or multiaxis electrohydraulic shaker table. Products are exposed to simulated earthquake motion to determine their functionality and mechanical/structural integrity to give a high degree of confidence to the end user that the product will perform in service. Structural and mechanical analyses can also be utilized in support of
Earthquake Testing on structures and/or product that cannot be accomodated by the table due to large size or weight. |

| Sneak circuit analysis for critical weapon system electronics and controls. Sneak circuit analysis is performed using MIL-STD-1543B as a guideline and by blending the use of a commercially available software tool called Sneak Circuit Analysis ToolTM (SCATTM) with focused analytical techniques to identify and characterize potential operational hazards of a system or subsystem. CapFast is a CAE (formerly Canadian Aviation Electronics) tool that provides a method of capturing nodal connections within the circuits and the properties of the circuit components. The SCAT software systematically identifies nodal patterns associated with sneak circuits.

| Engine Wear Test--Diesel/Heavy Duty |
 |
| Div 03 applies radioactive tracer technology to measure engine component wear, in real-time, during engine operation. We apply this technology to automotive and heavy-duty engines. Div. 08 provides heavy duty diesel wear testing as a normal function of lubricant evaluations they perform. Consequently, they also provide wear testing for parts and material changes when desired. |
