Fatigue Test and Analysis of the F-100 Landing Gear. Volume II,

Abstract

This section describes the experimental stress analysis phase of the landing gear fatigue investigation. The objectives of the experimental phase were: determine the peak stress points and associated stress concentration factors for fatigue analysis, and to investigate the relative merits of strain gages and photoelastic coatings for obtaining surface distributions near geometrical discontinuities on curved landing gear surfaces.
