Vibration fatigue testing and analysis

[noslo21]

Can anyone point me in the right direction of some good online references for fatigue prediction of electronic components under random vibrational loads? I know where to look if I am to shell out a little bit of money. However, I was looking to see if I can get away without doing so.

David S. Steinberg has three books on electronic cooling, vibation and thermal cycling. None cheap but all excellent and practical.
