On the Formulation and Application of Design Rules

Design rules are stated in the form of a predictor of failure initiation and its allowable value in the context of design of mechanical and structural components subjected to cyclic loading. Calibration and validation procedures are described and illustrated for the predictors with the aid of published experimental data. It is noted that mathematical models cannot be validated with respect to the allowable value of predictors.

Testimonials

“At DST Group, we have effectively used StressCheck over the last 10 years to determine accurate stress intensity factors. The results have been used to improve our residual strength and structural life estimates for aircraft in service with the Royal Australian Airforce, including C-130, P-3C and F/A-18 A/B. We have found it to be extremely easy to use and a very versatile code with which to create parametric models.

We have recently used StressCheck to obtain improved stress intensity factor solutions (Improved stress intensity factors for selected configurations in cracked plates and Improved stress intensity factors for a single corner crack at a loaded fastener hole) for five key generic configurations. These transferable parametric results have been published externally. One specific example is the non-linear contact analysis of a cracked, filled fastener hole, with both fastener and remote plate loading.”

Dr. Manfred Heller, Head, Structural & Damage Mechanics, DST Group
