Integrating Durability in Marine Composite Certification

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Durability of Composites in a Marine Environment

Part of the book series: Solid Mechanics and Its Applications ((SMIA,volume 208))

Abstract

A brief overview is given on how design standards are written. Static strength, fatigue, stress rupture, damage tolerance and the effect of the environment are addressed. Examples are given to show how durability is or can be addressed in design standards. Extensive testing is required today to certify long-term properties. Suggestions for research topics to reduce the test effort are discussed.
