Combat Maintenance Concepts and Repair Techniques for Helicopter Airframe Structures

Abstract

Modeling techniques were used to simulate airframe combat damage. Structural analyses were conducted to assess the deferrability and field repairability of the simulated damage cases. A methodology was developed to assess airframe combat damage in the field. Concepts for interim repair or airframe combat damage were investigated.
