Fatigue Life Assessment for Composite Structure

This work presents some of the most recent advances in the technologies which could enable accurate assessment of useful life for composite aircraft fatigue-critical, flight-critical components and structure. Such technology advances include: (1) nondestructive subsurface measurement shift from just detection of defects to three-dimensional measurement of defect location and size; (2) material ...

Fatigue Life Assessment of Composite Airplane Wing Subjected to Variable Mechanical and Thermal Loads

The purpose of this paper is to estimate the fatigue life of an airplane wing with laminated composite skin, subjected to variable mechanical and thermal loads. To achieve this aim,at first, the three-dimensional model of airplane wing was drawn in CATIA software. Then, by transferring the model to the ABAQUS software, the finite element model of the wing wascreated. H...

securitization of mortality risks in life annuities

insurers have in the past few decades faced longevity risks - the risk that annuitants survive more than expected - and therefore need a new approach to manage this new risk. in this dissertation we survey methods that hedge longevity risks. these methods use securitization to manage risk, so using modern financial and insurance pricing models, especially wang transform and actuarial concepts, ...
