NUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF AIRCRAFT
STRUCTURE STRENGTH FROM THE STANDPOINT OF FATIGUE AND FRACTURE MECHANICS
Stevan Maksimović
Abstract
This information is focused on developing a numerical approach to the
strength analysis of
aircraft structures from the standpoint of fatigue and fracture mechanics. A
computation procedure for life estimation of structural components under a
general load spectrum is shown. Life estimation is analyzed for structural
components with initial cracks. The analysis is carried out under cyclic
loads with constant and variable load amplitudes. A special attention in
this information is payed to life estimation of structural components from
the aspect of the damage tolerance approach. A complete numerical procedure
of life estimation is given. In order to determine parameters of fracture
mechanics such as stress intensity factors analytic and numerical methods
are used. The numerical method is based on conventional and special singular
finite elements. In order to verify results of numerical simulations,
experimental and other available results are compared. The obtained - good
agreement means that the present computation procedure can be used in
operational life estimation of cracked aircraft structural components. These
numerical simulations of behavior of structural components with cracks in
critical areas can reduce a risk of failures in aircraft structures.
