This research aimed to determine riveted carbon/epoxy composites’ mechanical performance when fabricated by resin transfer molding (RTM). As this manufacturing process is gaining importance in the aeronautics and automotive industries, assembly methods their reliability must be studied terms of airworthiness transportation implementation. The study case resumes determination bearing strength RT...

The purpose of this paper is to numerically investigate the fatigue life and crack growth path 2024 aluminum plate riveted joints. For purpose, according field observations, parameters affecting are obtained. Relevant geometric such as rivet shank length, hole diameter dimensional tolerances, well location pattern rivets material joints studied. In study, modeling performed calculate equivalent...

Abstract By applying a variety of strategies, including both the development new drive concepts as well use lightweight constructions, it is intended to meet climate targets set by Paris Agreement. Multi-material design often used when especially in mobility sector. Herby, various materials with different properties are combined adapt structure application force order reduce weight. For example...

Strength reduction in structures like an aircraft could be resulted as cyclic loads over a period of time and is an important factor for structural life prediction. Service loads are emphasized at the regions of stress concentration, mostly at the connection of components. The initial flaw prompting the service life was expected by using the Equivalent Initial Flaw Size (EIFS) which has been re...
