Good Agreement

Widespread fatigue damage (WFD) is an important concern of aging aircrafts. Residual strength of stiffened panels with widespread fatigue damage was evaluated by an engineering approach and a finite element method respectively. Nine stiffened panels with three types of damage were tested for their residual strength. The predictions are in good agreement with the experiment results and it is shown the methods could be used in an engineering practice for the residual strength evaluation with the acceptable accuracy. It can be seen from this research that WFD could result in significantly reduction in the residual strength of stiffened panels.

Stress Concentrations

There are many instances where the use of weight saving composite materials for an entire structure is either; too complex, too expensive or unfeasible. In these circumstances the use of a hybrid structure can incorporate the benefits of traditional construction materials, for example steel, coupled with the advantages of composite materials in weight critical areas. In the present study, an investigation was undertaken into the fatigue life characterisation of a hybrid joint for marine application. In addition the residual strength of the joint, after a fixed number of fatigue cycles, was assessed under axial compression and bending loads. A progressive damage model was developed to predict the location of major stress concentrations, the path of damage and subsequent loss in stiffness of the joint under axial compression.
