Variations in the modal characteristics of different Space Shuttle Main Engines (SSMEs) are presented herein to study their structural dynamics vibrations, especially under fluid/structure interaction. The results of extensive modal survey tests and analysis relative to significant features in the modal characteristics of different powerheads and components are discussed.
