Tension and Shear Strength of Inserts in the Gemini B Blast Shield.

Abstract

Tests were conducted to determine the tension and shear strength of plug inserts installed in the Gemini 'B' blast shield. The test was required because an accurate value of the strength of the plugs cannot be determined analytically. Plug inserts are used on the blast shield to support the interface heat exchanger, guillotine brackets, and the separation spring pads. (Author)
