Description
The more numerous the requirements are in aerospace vehicle operations, the more the ground test facility have to improve both the nature and the quality of the equipment as well as the volume and the size of the sites, for the importance of ground testing cannot be over emphasized.
As an example, two ground test programs are reviewed in this presentation, namely CONCORDE and VERAS. Special emphasis is given to the facility implementations due respectively to the static and fatigue test of CONCORDE in heat environment and to the dynamic test of VERAS in high level and transient temperature conditions.
