2 Content Introduction Airbus France tool : SAFE General overview Assessment of initiation life Assessment of propagation life Illustration : Widespread Fatigue Damage MSD phenomenon Modelisation principles Example Conclusion 2
3 Introduction Before 1990 : analytical solutions for fatigue calculation easy to use and short calculation time but a limited number of possible structures Need to develop general approaches Aim : to conceive a tool for specialists in fatigue but non-specialists in FEA AIRBUS France : SAFE integrated tool providing analytical or FE solutions library of parameterised models 3
4 Certification process Definition of certification policy Means of compliance Selection of items for analysis Mission building SAFE software Spectrum building Spectrum analysis Crack initiation calculation Crack propagation calculation Scatter factors Calculation of Maintenance Program Residual strength settlement Stress dossier Follow up of tests Exploitation of tests results Tests reports 4
5 SAFE procedures Spectrum procedure - Stress spectrum generation in the different aircraft zones - Equivalent stress computation in initiation and propagation No local l geome try study => no FEM solvs olvere r Initiation fatigue procedure - Equivalent stress as boundary condition - Local stress study using FEM solver - Specific fatigue post-processing processing Crack propagation procedure - Equivalent stress as boundary condition - SIF computation using either analytical solution or FEM solver - SIF computation integrated in an external crack propagation loop 5

22 Widespread Fatigue Damage 1988 : Aloha Airlines Boeing 737 accident Manufacturers must consider WFD to better design the future aircrafts propose adapted inspection programs justify service life extension Airbus is going to have more and more ageing aircrafts Need of a MSD calculation tool 22
23 WFD : MSD Phenomenon Multiple Site Damage : aircraft = assembly of riveted joints great number of critical sites Example of WFD in a longitudinal lap joint Method developed for the A300 life extension 23
24 WFD : MSD Phenomenon 3 evolution phases for each critical site : crack initiation crack propagation crack link up (fracture between 2 holes) then : fracture of the whole structure Particularity : some cracks initiate while others propagate Necessity of an automatic remeshing Use of the block concept 24
25 WFD : Modelisation Block concept? 11 possible blocks : right, middle and left block intact, cracked or broken block A B C D E F G H I J K Example with the right block N = Ninit Propagation Failure block 1 block 2 block 2 block 3 25
26 WFD : Modelisation Model creation by blocks assembly Pre-defined blocks Blocks stuck together Blocks stuck to the rest of the structure 26
27 WFD : Methodology Building of the structure Random selection of initiated sites N = N + N NO (re-)meshing by blocks NO Numerical simulation Fracture of the link? YES Fracture of the structure? Post-processing (crack sizes calculation) END YES 27
28 WFD : Example Modelisation 2D membrane model linear solver Precise calculation method : interactions taken into account Barsoum elements on cracks tips SIF computation using SAMCEF Free meshing zone 28
29 WFD : Example Local stress computation on a joint Local stress Stress Intensity Factor Post-processing Local stress initiation or not Stress intensity factor crack propagation 29
30 WFD : Example 30
31 Conclusion SAFE is an integrated tool dedicated to Fatigue and Damage Tolerance dedicated to fatigue specialists but not FE specialists from complex spectrum analysis to initiation and propagation fatigue life calculation using linear and non-linear FE solver from SAMCEF computing SIF either from NASGRO (analytical) or from SAMCEF (numerical) SAFE is the AIRBUS France software developed by SAMTECH France under AIRBUS specifications distributed by SAMTECH SAFE is an industrial software distributed to more than 15 companies in 7 countries 31
