Book Description
In accordance with the mission of AGARD the Structures and Materials Panel (SMP) has always kept an open eye for the possibilities to sponsor collaborative programmes of research. AGARD is unique in its ability to realise the cooperation of laboratories in up to sixteen nations. In this way AGARD distinguishes itself from other international scientific and technical organisations. In the 1970s the SMP decided to embark on collaborative research activities in the area of fatigue. One of the first activities was the Corrosion Fatigue Cooperative Testing Programme (CFCTP), the recursor to the Fatigue in Aircraft Corrosion Testing (FACT) programme. Both programmes are described in this report. Failure by fatigue and degradation by corrosion continue to be major considerations in aircraft design. Environmental effects influence both initiation and propagation of fatigue cracks, and dynamic loading may cause more rapid deterioration of corrosion protection systems. Therefore the conjuoint action of dynamic loading and environmental attack, i.e. corrosion fatigue, requires special attention. Many corrosion fatigue tests have been done on aluminum alloys. However, few included critical structural details like joints, under realistic cyclic load histories and in service-like environments. Even fewer used practical corrosion protection systems. These aspects are specifically addressed bye the CFCTP and FACT programmes. The results provide a significant contribution to the understanding of aircraft corrosion fatigue and should encourage further investigation in this difficult and challenging area of aerospace technology.

Book Description
Integral geometry deals with the problem of determining functions by their integrals over given families of sets. These integrals de?ne the corresponding integraltransformandoneofthemainquestionsinintegralgeometryaskswhen this transform is injective. On the other hand, when we work with complex measures or forms, operators appear whose kernels are non-trivial but which describe important classes of functions. Most of the questions arising here relate, in one way or another, to the convolution equations. Some of the well known publications in this ?eld include the works by J. Radon, F. John, J. Delsarte, L. Zalcman, C. A. Berenstein, M. L. Agranovsky and recent monographs by L. H ̈ ormander and S. Helgason. Until recently research in this area was carried out mostly using the technique of the Fourier transform and corresponding methods of complex analysis. In recent years the present author has worked out an essentially di?erent methodology based on the description of various function spaces in terms of - pansions in special functions, which has enabled him to establish best possible results in several well known problems.

Towards a Unified Fatigue Life Prediction Method for Marine Structures
Author: Weicheng Cui
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3642418317
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
In order to apply the damage tolerance design philosophy to design marine structures, accurate prediction of fatigue crack growth under service conditions is required. Now, more and more people have realized that only a fatigue life prediction method based on fatigue crack propagation (FCP) theory has the potential to explain various fatigue phenomena observed. In this book, the issues leading towards the development of a unified fatigue life prediction (UFLP) method based on FCP theory are addressed. Based on the philosophy of the UFLP method, the current inconsistency between fatigue design and inspection of marine structures could be resolved. This book presents the state-of-the-art and recent advances, including those by the authors, in fatigue studies. It is designed to lead the future directions and to provide a useful tool in many practical applications. It is intended to address to engineers, naval architects, research staff, professionals and graduates engaged in fatigue prevention design and survey of marine structures, in fatigue studies of materials and structures, in experimental laboratory research, in planning the repair and maintenance of existing structures, and in rule development. The book is also an effective educational aid in naval architecture, marine, civil and mechanical engineering. Prof. Weicheng Cui is the Dean of Hadal Science and Technology Research Center of Shanghai Ocean University, China. Dr. Xiaoping Huang is an associate professor of School of Naval Architecture, Ocean and Civil Engineering of Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China. Dr. Fang Wang is an associate professor of Hadal Science and Technology Research Center of Shanghai Ocean University, China.

Handbook of Structural Life Assessment
Author: Raouf A. Ibrahim
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 111913546X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 580
Book Description
This important, self-contained reference deals with structural life assessment (SLA) and structural health monitoring (SHM) in a combined form. SLA periodically evaluates the state and condition of a structural system and provides recommendations for possible maintenance actions or the end of structural service life. It is a diversified field and relies on the theories of fracture mechanics, fatigue damage process, and reliability theory. For common structures, their life assessment is not only governed by the theory of fracture mechanics and fatigue damage process, but by other factors such as corrosion, grounding, and sudden collision. On the other hand, SHM deals with the detection, prediction, and location of crack development online. Both SLA and SHM are combined in a unified and coherent treatment.
