    Structural Analysis (1990)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2018-06-09
    Description: NASTRAN basically performs complex analyses of a structural design and predicts how various elements of the design will react to many different conditions of stress and strain. NASTRAN applications include almost every kind of structure and construction, and the program's substructuring capability allows different segments of a structure to be modeled jointly after having been modeled separately. NASTRAN permits the effects of control systems, aerodynamic transfer functions and other nonstructural problems, such as static response to thermal expansion, to be incorporated in the solution of the structural problem. Examples of industrial users of NASTRAN include DeVlieg-Sundstrand, Belvidere, Illinois, Texas Instruments, Temple, Texas and Texas Instrument's Central Research Laboratories. NASTRAN is available to private industry through NASA's Computer Software Management and Information Center.

    Stress Analyzer (1990)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2018-06-09
    Description: SPATE 900 Dynamic Stress Analyzer is an acronym for Stress Pattern Analysis by Thermal Emission. It detects stress-induced temperature changes in a structure and indicates the degree of stress. Ometron, Inc.'s SPATE 9000 consists of a scan unit and a data display. The scan unit contains an infrared channel focused on the test structure to collect thermal radiation, and a visual channel used to set up the scan area and interrogate the stress display. Stress data is produced by detecting minute temperature changes, down to one-thousandth of a degree Centigrade, resulting from the application to the structure of dynamic loading. The electronic data processing system correlates the temperature changes with a reference signal to determine stress level.

    Active Optics for a Segmented Primary Mirror on a Deep-Space Optical Receiver Antenna (DSORA) (1990)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-10
    Description: This article investigates the active optical control of segments in the primary mirror to correct for wavefront errors in the Deep-Space Optical Receiver Antenna (DSORA). Although an exact assessment of improvement in signal blur radius cannot be made until a more detailed preliminary structural design is completed, analytical tools are identified for a time when such designs become available. A brief survey of appropriate sensing approaches is given. Since the choice of control algorithm and architecture depends on the particular sensing system used, typical control systems, estimated complexities, and the type of equipment required are discussed. Once specific sensor and actuator systems are chosen, the overall control system can be optimized using methods identified in the literature.

    Predicting The Compression Strength Of Impact-Damaged Sandwich Panels (1990)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: The objective of this work was to develop a technique for predicting the residual compression strength of sandwich panels containing impact damage in one facesheet. The technique was tailored to predict the strength of specimens that exhibit a failure mode involving the formation of kink bands at locations of peak strain in the region of impact damage. Under continued compression loading, the kink bands propagate in a stable manner perpendicular to the applied load. When a critical kink-band length is reached, growth becomes unstable corresponding to panel failure. The analysis follows in two sections. The first section calculates the far-field stress required for stable kink-band growth and the second calculates that required for unstable growth. The residual strength prediction is made when the stress for stable growth becomes equal to that for unstable kink-band growth. Initial comparisons between analysis and experiment show good agreement.

    A Mechanical Model for Elastic Fiber Microbuckling (1990)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: A two-dimensional mechanical model is presented to predict the compressive strength of unidirectional fiber composites using technical beam theory and classical elasticity. First, a single fiber resting on a matrix half-plane is considered. Next, a more elaborate analysis of a uniformly laminated, unidirectional fiber composite half-plane is presented. The model configuration incorporates a free edge which introduces a buckling mode that originates at the free edge and decays into the inferior of the half-plane. It is demonstrated that for composites of low volume fraction (less than 0.3), this decay mode furnishes values of buckling strain that are below the values predicted by the Rosen (1965) model. At a higher volume fraction the buckling mode corresponds to a half wavelength that is in violation of the usual assumptions of beam theory. Causes for deviations of the model prediction froi?i existing experimental results are discussed.

    The Lagrangian Multiplier Method of Finding Upper and Lower Limits to Critical Stresses of Clamped Plates (1946)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: The theory of Lagrangian multipliers is applied to the problem of finding both upper and lower limits to the true compressive buckling stress of a clamped rectangular plate. The upper and lower limits thus bracket the truss, which cannot be exactly found by the differential-equation approach. The procedure for obtaining the upper limit, which is believed to be new, presents certain advantages over the classical Raleigh-Rite method of finding upper limits. The theory of the lower-limit procedure has been given by Trefftz but, in the present application, the method differs from that of Trefftz in a way that makes it inherently more quickly convergent. It is expected that in other buckling problems and in some vibration problems problems the Lagrangian multiplier method finding upper and lower limits may be advantageously applied to the calculation of buckling stresses and natural frequencies.
