FILAMENT WINDING IN MILITARY APPLICATIONS. A DISCUSSION OF PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH FILAMENT WOUND MOTOR CASES,

Abstract

Design of filament wound structures is discussed in relation to material selection, winding technique, quality control, process control and test methods. The design is illustrated by specific example of a rocket motor chamber. Buckling, which has become more critical with higher strength lighter weight chambers, is analyzed together with other important engineering properties of the glass filament reinforced composite.
