Interaction of stress-raising features in aerostructures (2001)
Thesis
Graham, R. H. (2001). Interaction of stress-raising features in aerostructures. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4212379

It is widely accepted that fatigue is responsible for 90% of all unscheduled component failures, and is therefore a key research area for the aerospace industry. The basis of successful design against fatigue relies on the accurate and consistent det... Read More about Interaction of stress-raising features in aerostructures.
