Evaluation of and Improvements to Bonded Repair Software: AOARD-98-4010

Abstract

Verification of procedures and mathematical tools used for bonded repair design is essential in providing an efficient and feasible repair. The RAAF Engineering standard C5033 uses such tools and was introduced to provide a conservative design approach to bonded repairs. Using this standard in conjunction with a valid design case provides for a baseline repair design that can be used to validate the CalcuRep software package. The particular cost study used for this purpose is the 1994 F-111C Lower Wing Skin Boron Repair.
