Evaluation of finite element predictions of analog specimen residual stress bondline failures

Abstract

Sample Grids We now include two sample grids to illustrate the general properties of the method. Figure 2 shows the symmetry plane and a spanwise surfacefor a gridgeneratedaroundanM6wing.Figure3 shows surfacesof a gridgeneratedfor an “X-38-like”conŽ guration.In both cases linedeletionproducesa transitionfroma relativelydensebody grid to amuch coarser,more isotropicgrid at the boundarieswithout
