Abstract

The structural design philosophy based on durability and damage tolerance requires prediction of fatigue crack growth due to anticipated service loads. The essential elements of this analysis are: service load histories (random spectrum loads); characterization of constant amplitude data for material in question; and fatigue model. The development and application of this analysis to aircraft structures made of metallic and composite materials are discussed.
