Koolloos, M.F.J. (author), ten Hoeve, H.J. (author), Grooteman, F.P. (author), de Koning, A.U. (author)Multiple Site Damage (MSD) is a typical problem for ageing civil and transport aircraft, where the large number of fuselage pressure cycles may cause fatigue cracking at multiple rivet locations. The residual strength of a panel with a leading crack and MSD cracks is lower than that of a panel with the same leading crack but without MSD. This...report 2001

de Koning, A.U. (author), Henriksen, T.K. (author), ten Hoeve, H.J. (author)Fatigue crack growth associated with cyclic (secondary) plastic flow near a crack front is modelled using an incremental formulation. A new description of threshold behaviour under small load cycles is included. Quasi-static crack extension under high load excursions is described using an incremental formulation of the R-(crack growth resistance...report 1994
