FEASIBILITY OF JOINING ADVANCED COMPOSITE FLIGHT VEHICLE STRUCTURES.

Abstract

The feasibility of using rational engineering methods to design bonded and mechanically fastened joints fabricated from fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) composite and FRP composite-to-metal adherends was investigated. Work continued on the survey of analytical design methods and the use of a finite element technique to analyze some overlap type joints. (Author).
