Consistent Structural Integrity and Efficient Certification with Analysis. Volume 3: Appendices of Verification and Validation Examples, Correlation Factors, and Failure Criteria

Abstract : This SBIR report maintains that reliable pretest predictions and efficient certification are suffering from inconsistent structural integrity that is prevalent throughout a project's design maturity. Eight primary inconsistencies practiced in aerospace structural analysis are identified. This SBIR proposes solutions for these inconsistencies and documents software implementation and real-world examples. Volume 3 provides a collection of verification and validation examples, mostly for composite laminate strength and bonded joints.
