Dissertation
Multiple site fatigue damage in fuselage skin splices
1994
Overview
The results of experimental and theoretical research into multiple site fatigue damage (MSD) in the skin splices of pressurized fuselages are described. Firstly, a coupon-type specimen has been designed, which approximates on-aircraft conditions, and allows realistic MSD to be created and studied in a laboratory environment. Other coupon specimens used in industry and research cannot be used for MSD testing, because the net section stress increases untypically as the cracks progress, and because the specimens tend to fail before MSD has developed. The specimen concept described in this thesis overcomes these problems. Secondly, a cost-effective computer program for predicting MSD crack growth within a frame-bay has been developed. It applies Rooke's superposition and compounding technique in a new way, and agrees well with experimental MSD crack growth curves.
