WHITE PAPER – HIGH STRENGTH METAL FATIGUE
High strength steels and other high strength metals are inherently damage intolerant which renders them susceptible to a wide statistical range of apparent strength results, especially under fatigue conditions. The correlation to rolling bearing fatigue and methods is also presented.
WHITE PAPER – COMPOSITES MANUFACTURING
The node bonds of the honeycomb core of a composite sandwich undergo severe stress during manufacture. This paper presents an investigation done with NASA during the Constellation program. FEA Services/Gabriel Dambaugh perfomed a key FEA role in finding root causes for node bond issues.
