This report reviews currently available information on corrosion and fatigue in aircraft as a background to discussing the assessment of corrosion and fatigue damage. The main topics are: * aircraft operating environments and loads * corrosion * fatigue * corrosion and fatigue * corrosion and fatigue damage assessment. Aircraft structures are...

Many military aircraft are used more severely and over a longer periodthan originally intended. Consequently, a careful life management, including service load monitoring has become indispensable. This paper describes the development of a simple method to quantify the severity in terms of "potential crack growth" of recorded load spectra. This...

The problems of Ageing Aircraft are worldwide. Hence, actions to overcome or prevent these problems should be taken in international collaboration. The Federal Aviation Administration FAA and the Netherlands Civil Aviation Department RLD have signed a Memorandum of Cooperation in the area of structural integrity, with specific reference to...

This report reviews the applicability of damage tolerance concepts to helicopter structures. After a general discussion of the damage tolerance concept, attention is paid to the specific aspects of the helicopter loading environment. Examples are presented of damage tolerant design, both in metal and in composite structures. However, it is felt...

The influence of the approximation of the lower end of the load spectrum was investigated by comparative tests using the Basic F-27 test programme and an extended version, containing three times more cycles per flight. Crack growth was studied on notched sheet specimens made of Alclad 202U-T3 and Alclad TOT5-T6. Fatigue life tests were done on...

The effects of systematic variations in mean stress level and in spectrum and ground load severity of a flight simulation test programme have been investigated on riveted specimens (fatigue life) and sheet specimens with central saw cut (crack growth). The fatigue life and crack propagation life in Alclad 202U-T3 compared with Alclad TOT5-T6...
