    New Shock Test Database Developed To Document Warships Ability To Survive Underwater Explosions


    ARCHIVE PICTURE: ATLANTIC OCEAN - 160613-N-DN943-001 ATLANTIC OCEAN (June 10, 2016) The littoral combat ship USS Jackson (LCS 6) successfully completes the first of three scheduled full-ship shock trials. The shock trials are designed to demonstrate the ship's ability to withstand the effects of nearby underwater explosions and retain required capability.

    STORY CAPTION:

    It was announced Friday (5 June), Naval Surface Warfare Center, Philadelphia Division (NSWCPD) recently worked alongside Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) and Naval Sea Logistics Center (NSLC) to establish a new official online database called eForms for all Navy shock data for shock hardened shipboard equipment across the Fleet.

    Naval ship systems and equipment must meet survivability requirements. Shock qualification verifies equipment will not fail if the ship’s hull experiences an Underwater Explosion (UNDEX) event. NSWCPD serves as the NAVSEA lead for shock qualification for Navy shipboard equipment.

    “For shipboard equipment installation to be authorized, it must meet applicable shock requirements, accomplished either by qualification or with a Shock Deficiency Correction Plan (SDCP); eForms allows for both, providing a ‘one-stop shop’ with eShock and eSDCP,” explained Christina Backes, Engineering Manager for Shock Certification – Surface Ships, who was involved in eShock development.

    The Electronic Shock Module of eForms, known as eShock, was developed to serve as an agile and secure way to store and access official Navy shock data.
