Fatigue Evaluation of Wing and Associated Structure on Small Airplanes.

Abstract

Methods for evaluating the wing and associated structure for fatigue under the 'safe life' and 'fail safe' concept are outlined. Detailed procedures and scatter factors are given for full scale fatigue test, component test and the analytical methods of substantiation. Loading spectra are given for the various types of aircraft and usage. (Author)
