Sep 1980-Mar 1984 Corporate Author: DAYTON UNIV OH RESEARCH INST Personal Author(s): Gallagher, J P; Giessler, F J; Berens, A P; Engle, Jr, J M PDF Url: Report Date: May 1984 Pagination or Media Count: 1334 Abstract: This handbook supports the USAF Airplane Damage Tolerance Requirements contained in MIL-A-83444. The handbook provides specific background data and justification for the detailed requirements of MIL-A-83444 and provides guidelines and state-of-the-art analysis methods to assist contractor and USAF personnel in complying with the intent of the specification and in solving cracking problems, in general, for metallic aircraft structures. The material contained in this document is general enough to be useful in the evaluation of the damage tolerance of in-service aircraft designed and qualified prior to the issuance of MIL-A-83444. The handbook has been structured to provide a clear and concise summary of the specification, MIL-A-83444, as well as supporting analysis methods, test techniques, and nondestructive inspection (NDI) methods are provided as state-of-the-art along with suggested and/or recommended practices, limitations, etc. For the convenience of the user, copies of appropriate USAF structural specifications are contained as an appendix to this handbook.

D.; Smith, J. Full Text: Report Date: MAY 1994 Pagination or Media Count: 749 Abstract: This report presents a compilation of mechanical property data that are useful for damage tolerant design and analyses. The data of this handbook combines the old data that were previously presented in MCIC-HB-OIR (Damage Tolerant Design Handbook, December 1983) and more recent data that were collected from various sources. The fracture toughness, crack growth, R-curve, sustained load and threshold data are for alloy and stainless steels, nickel based super alloys, titanium alloys and aluminum alloys.
