Damage tolerance of bonded aircraft structures. (English) Zbl 1419.74220

Summary: This paper presents a damage tolerance philosophy for bonded structures and repairs. It is proposed to assess the damage growth in bonded structures loaded mainly in shear with a generic strain elastic energy release rate concept. This concept has been validated on metal-to-metal and metal-to-composite bonding in metallic and hybrid structures.
