Overview of technology relative to the pogo instability on space shuttle

The prediction of pogo contains a major source of uncertainty in the difficulty of defining the dynamic characteristics of certain components. An overview of the space shuttle technology with respect to each the following pogo problem areas is presented: structure, tank-liquid interaction, feedline, engine (pump), pogo-loop/control-loop interaction, and stability analysis.
