Damage tolerance substantiation

The Practical Use of Fracture Mechanics

Abstract

Previous chapters dealt with analysis procedures, (Chapters 2-5), the ingredients needed for the analysis (Chapters 7-10) and with the use of the results for fracture control (Chapter 11). This Chapter concentrates on the general scope of the analysis, its relationship to tests (verification and substantiation), the assumptions and sources of error, and the design options for improvement of damage tolerance. In short, it considers the analysis in the framework of damage tolerance provisions.
