Analysis of cracks in aging aircraft structures, with and without composite-patch repairs
In this paper, the problems of composite-patch repair of (i) center and edge-cracked panels loaded in the far-field; and (il) cracks emanating from pin-loaded fastener holes, are examined in thorough detail. The effects of various non-dimensional design parameters on the reduction in the stress-mtensity factors near the crack-tip are determined, and are presented in the form of design charts. B...
متن کاملAppropriate Loading Techniques in Finite Element Analysis of Underground Structures
Stability of underground structures is assessed by comparing rock strength with induced stresses resulted from ground stresses. Rock mass surrounding the opening may fail either by fracture or excessive deformation caused. Accurate calculation of induced stresses is therefore fundamental in the stability analysis of an opening. Although numerical methods, particularly finite element method, are...
متن کاملThermal Ndt & E of Composite Aircraft Repairs
The objective of this study was to investigate different defects and material systems (notch or delamination under carbon and boron composite patching bonded with FM73 adhesive film to the surface of Al 2024-T3) using several thermal non-destructive testing and evaluation techniques. Active thermographic approaches, using, firstly, a simple heat excitation source with an infrared camera, second...
متن کاملHigh performance finite element analysis of composite aeroelastic structures
A high performance finite element analysis software tool has been developed for high fidelity deformation analysis of aeroelastic tailored wings and blades made of anisotropic composite materials. The package comprises an in-line semiautomatic adaptive mesh generator and a finite element solver. An aerodynamic solver can be plugged into the package to perform a coupled aero-structure analysis. ...
متن کاملThe Importance of Failure Mode Identification in Adhesive Bonded Aircraft Structures and Repairs
The performance of adhesive bonded components and repairs in the aviation industry has varied significantly, resulting in a perception that adhesive bonding may not be reliable. The authors suggest that adhesive bond failures require closer scrutiny to accurately assess the causes of these failures as in recent history they have not received the same rigorous investigative scrutiny usually asso...
