The precaution to observ^e is that higher-frequency elementsshall not have amplification factors such that A,nGm may be excessive forthem. Amplification Factors for Damped Sinusoidal Acceleration If the outer container of the package is heavy enough (see Section )there will be no rebound and the packaged item will vibrate in the cushion-ing after impact. For linear cushioning with velocity damping, the accelera-tion produced by the vibration will be a damped sinusoid (equation ()and Fig. ).
