The Accurate Strength & Life Prediction challenge develops validated strength and life prediction tools with known accuracy for complex composite structures and standardized procedures for their reliable use.
More »This technical challenge addresses Verification and Validation methods for applications in strength and life prediction tools for complex composite structures and standardized procedures. The development of high fidelity analysis tools will enable reliable predictions of strength and life of composite structures with damage or defects, along with prediction of structure failures when subjected to high-energy impacts. This research supports the feasibility of manufacturing future aircraft in ultra-efficient but non-traditional configurations.
