Description |
Fatigue crack propagation was studied in aluminium alloy
plates reinforced by adhesive bonding a unidirectional carbon
fibre epoxy patch across the crack path. The tests were
carried out under constant amplitude as well as flight
simulation combat aircraft spectrum loading. Comparative
tests were also conducted on unpatched plates. The composite
patch considerably reduces crack growth rates. The improvement
in resistance to fatigue crack growth is more pronounced under
spectrum loading conditions.
