Application of Damage Tolerance Principles for Improved Airworthiness of Rotorcraft(l' Application des principes de la tolerance a l'endommagement pour une meilleure aptitude au vol des aeronefs a voilure tournante).

摘要

The Specialists' Meeting dealt with Aging Systems and more specifically Application of Damage Tolerance Principles for Improved Airworthiness of Rotorcraft. These proceedings include a Keynote Address and fifteen papers having the objective of discussing and presenting the applicability of the new design approach to major rotorcraft components such as the dynamic system, primary load carrying structures and flight control systems. Both metal and composite structures including special material related topics such as crack growth models and delamination modelling were examined. There were three sessions covering the following topics: (1) Material Data and Crack Growth Models for DT-Approaches of Helicopter Structures; (2) Design Application of DT- Principles; and (3) Operator Experience and Certification is sues A Technical Evaluation Report of this meeting is also included.
