Strength prediction of bolted joints in graphite/epoxy composite laminates
TL;DR: In this article, a parametric finite element analysis was conducted to investigate the effect of failure criteria and material property degradation rules on the tensile behaviour and strength of bolted joints in graphite/epoxy composite laminates.

Numerical and experimental investigation of the laser forming process
TL;DR: In this paper, numerical and experimental results from an investigation on the laser forming process of metallic plates are discussed, a three-dimensional finite-element algorithm has been developed, which includes a non-linear transient coupled thermal-structural analysis; the temperature dependency of the thermal and mechanical properties of the material being accounted for.

Development and Validation of a Novel Bird Strike Resistant Composite Leading Edge Structure
TL;DR: In this article, a fiber-reinforced composite Leading Edge (LE) of a horizontal tail plain (HTP) is proposed to protect the ribs and the inner LE structure from damaging.

Design by analysis versus design by formula of high strength steel pressure vessels: a comparative study
TL;DR: In this paper, a comparative study for design by analysis and design by formula of a cylinder to nozzle intersection has been made using different finite element techniques, and the results clearly show disadvantages in terms of limit load capability when the design-by-formula procedures are used in the design of high strength steel pressure vessels.

Fatigue crack growth retardation assessment of 2024-T3 and 6061-T6 aluminium specimens
TL;DR: In this paper, a fatigue crack growth retardation model is developed, which considers a strip plastic zone with material hardening effect which is taken as one of the basic mechanisms controlling fatigue cracks growth.
