It took decades for technology to catch up with the math that a researcher worked out to control vibration table shakers. This researcher knew that shaking in all directions at once was the key to realistic parts testing. Now a lab is putting the algorithms he developed more than 30 years ago to the test by shaking up nuclear weapon components.
