Design Development and Durability Validation of Postbuckled Composite and Metal Panels. Volume 1. Executive Summary

Abstract

The objective of this program was to develop design procedures and durability validation methods for curved metal and composite panels designed to operate in the postbuckling range under the action of combined compression and shear loads. This research and technology effort was motivated by the need to develop design and life prediction methodologies for such structures.
