Fatigue Test on a Full Scale Panel

Key Engineering Materials, 2006
Fatigue test on a full scale panel with complex loading and geometry has been carried out by using a tri-axial test machine located in the laboratory of the University of Naples. The aeronautical test panel was designed and manufactured by Alenia. The demonstrator is made up of two parts which are linked by a transversal joint that is parallel to the ...

Vibration testing of full-scale structures

Nuclear Engineering and Design, 1973
Abstract Vibration testing of nuclear reactor plant systems is discussed as a part of the determination of the response of such systems to earthquakes. The methods of ambient, harmonic excitation, and impulse testing are compared. Harmonic excitation tests provide a method of obtaining the complete dynamic characteristics of a system and of ...

Full-Scale Fatigue Testing

2016
Full-scale fatigue testing (FSFT) forms an integral part of the aircraft development and certification prior to induction into service. The five historical stages of evolution of FSFT are described with a detailed description of present-day requirements including composite structures. The technology used in the FSFT process is explained in detail.

Minicomputers in Full-Scale Structural Testing

Journal of the Technical Councils of ASCE, 1979
Minicomputer oriented data acquisition and data processing systems are effectively used in full-scale structural tests. Digital computer techniques have greatly augmented the existing analog test techniques. Computerized systems are used to monitor structural behavior during the test and perform numerous on-line data management tasks.
