Application of Advanced Fracture Mechanics Technology to Ensure Structural Reliability in Critical Titanium Structures.

Abstract

Numerous meetings were held with navy personnel in order to identify areas of concern and the experimental data needed for the structural analysis. The mentioned areas cover a broad spectrum regarding loading conditions, material behavior, fabrication procedures, weldments and structural integrity. It is anticipated that recommendations will be made regarding data gathering and/or critical tests for specific needs. (Author)
