Abstract: | This paper presents a weight function technique for calculating the stress intensity factors for composite repairs to cracks emanating from an internal notch, corrosion blend out, or a free edge under arbitrary loading in rib stiffened panels. The predictions are compared with both finite element and experimental values. This methodology represents a significant extension to existing assessment and design formulae that are currently limited to the case of uniform loading and flat unstiffened panels. |
