AGARD/SMP Review Damage Tolerance for Engine Structures. 4. Reliability and Quality Assurance (Revue AGARD/SMP Tolerance Aux Dommages pour les Composants de Moteurs. 4 Fiabilite et Assurance Qualite)

Abstract

The Structures and Materials Panel has organized a series of four Workshops planned within the framework of a Review on Damage Tolerance for Engine Structures. The Review aimed to address the areas critical to the acceptance of an approach based on damage tolerance concepts as n alternative lifeing philosophy to that of safe life for the design of engine components. This publication is the last in the series on the Workshops. Previous topics covered by the Review include: Non-Destructive Evaluation of Components , Defects and Quantitative Materials Behaviour and Component Behaviour and Life Management , published as R-768, R-769 and R-770, respectively. This workshop addressed the need for, and the approaches to, ensuring component reliability and quality assurance. It surveyed the current procedures for materials and component specifications, standard process control, quality assurance and design systems. The prospects for devising a common NATO data base on integrity-related problems were examined.
