Motion-base simulator study of control of an externally blown flap STOL transport aircraft after failure of an outboard engine during landing approach [PDF]
A moving-base simulator investigation of the problems of recovery and landing of a STOL aircraft after failure of an outboard engine during final approach was made. The approaches were made at 75 knots along a 6 deg glide slope.

Impact and Post‐Impact Properties of Carbon Fiber Fabric Laminates Reinforced With Carbon Nanofibres
Carbon nanofiber addition on the low‐velocity impact response of carbon fiber laminates. ABSTRACT The use of carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRPs) is limited by their susceptibility to low‐velocity impact (LVI) damage. This study investigates the effect of incorporating 0.75 wt.% carbon nanofibres (CNFs) into the epoxy matrix of carbon fiber fabric ...

Risk Times in Mission‐Oriented Systems
ABSTRACT This article assesses risk times in mission‐oriented systems with high safety standards. We examine critical times under two safety policies. The first requires that the system's reliability function, known the first failure of the components, must exceed a reliability level throughout the mission.
