Using Opensource Software Tools for Data Analysis in High Intensity Shock Calibration of Accelerometers

Th. Bruns, H. Volker, S. Eichstädt
Abstract:
This paper describes the concept and implementation of a model based data analysis of primary shock calibration. The concept follows to a large extent the scheme of ISO 16063-43. In addition, it uses classical statistics to combine a number of measurements. The implementation is programmed in Python, i.e. using open source software, in particular a new tool box for the analysis of dynamic measurements, PyDynamic, which features the integrated handling of uncertainties in terms of covariances.
