Several types of vibration machines are used at DTMB for cali- 

 brating vibration instruments and for obtaining the vibration character- 

 istics of ships and equipment. In this report these machines are 

 described, some of their characteristics are listed, and brief operating

Natural frequencies and normal mode shapes of vertical and 

 longitudinal vibration of the hull were calculated. The longitudinal 

 and vertical response to a sinusoidal driving force is also calculated. 

 The main propulsion plant, being resiliently mounted, results in two 

 more vertical natural frequencies than when the machinery is rigidly 

 mounted.
