This configurationwas chosen for the reasonthat it.facilitatedassembly and disassembly of models while stress con-centrations similar to those in a riveted Structurewere retained. Forthe solid points which represent fatigue data obtainedwith the siren,the curve has been

8、sketched in through the available points to indicatea general trend of the data. Fatigue life is very strongly dependent-onthe level of noise excitation, since it varies from under a minute toseveral hours in the noise-level range of the tests.Attention is called particularly to the open points whic

9、h are dataobtained with the jet. These data fall generally to the right of thecurve in figure 3; thus, a longer fatigue life is indicated. !thiS dif-ference in fatigue life is due in part to the fact that the panel.hasa higher.root-mean-sqyarestress level when excitedby the siren for agiven overall

These mounting configurationsare shownschematically in figure 4

11、 along with some of the test results in bargraph fog. For all the mountings, the gage and size of panel were con-stant and the input noise levels were also constant. The-basic configu-ration A is the same as that for which data were presented in figure 3.Failures in the skin panel occurred first nea

This configurationlasted on the average about 50 percent longer than confkmtion f-l.An attempt was made to eliminate peeling by bonding both sides andclampithepanel between two rigid surfaces as in configurationC.In this case failureoccurred at

15、astened for testing to a curvedrigid frame as indicated in configurationD. Failures were initiatedw near the bolt heads as in configurationsA and B. This condition resulted by so doing th fatigue life was doubled as indicatedby thebar of dashed lines. ConfiguratioE is the same as configurationDexcep

16、t that tests were made with a pressure differential of 6 pounds persquare inch across the panel. This high internalpressure caused the firstpanel frequency to nearly treble and the fatigue life was greatly increasedas shown, in spite of the much faster rate of ap-ication of stress cycles.As a matter

17、 of interest a 0.064-inch-gagepanel was tested in a con-figuration similar to configurationA for comparison. It was found that) doubling the gage thickness of the panel increased its fatigue life toabout twenty times that of configurationA. This finding was confirmedin both the jet and siren tests-A

18、 limited nuniberof other tests have been made on larger and morecomplex panels. In all cases failures came first in the stiffener ele-ments; thus, the importance“ofdetail design of the panel supportingstructure is emphasized. It was also noted that crack growth was mark-edly more rapid in bonded str

19、uctures than in riveted structures.Comparison of Random and Discrete Frequency TeatsFlat panels.- The rest of the paper will deal with comparisonsof fatigue life under discrete and random loading at the same root-mean-square (RMS) stress levels. The results of flat-panel tests are givenin figure 5.

20、Time to failure in hours is shown for various root-mean-square stress levels for an 0.032-inch-gagepanel. we solid pointswere obtained by means of discrete frequency excitation from a sirenwhereas the open potits were obtained with random excitation from anair jet. The curve is a least-square curve

21、through the solid points.It can be seen that at a given root-mean-squarestress level, failureoccurs in a shorter time when the panels are excited by the random jetnoise. The fact that the random noise of the jet is more destructivemay result from the fact that some of the peak stress responses are s

22、ev-eral times as great for a given root-mean-squarevalue”as they are forthe constant-level siren tests. This phenomenon is particularly notice-able at the lower stress levels wherethe differences in fatigue lifetend to be the greatest and the panel dsmping is relatively low. AtProvided by IHSNot for

24、 foboth random- and discrete-type inputs. A schematicdiagram of the model along with some of thetest results are illustrated in figure 6. “ .Here again the time to failure in hours is shown at various root-mean-square stress levels for:the beams tested in bending. The speci-mens were 3 inches long,

25、1 inch wide, and 1/4 inch deep with 3/16-inchnotches located 1/2 inch from the root. The open points were obtained_by means of an amplified tape recording of jet noise fed into a shakerattached to the tip. The solid points were obtained by applying a sinus-oidal load at the tip in a Sonntag bending

26、fatigue chie. There is a“”tendency”in these tests also for the random load to be relatively less “-destructive at the higher stress levels and more destructive at thelower stress levels than the sinusoidal load. For the data of figures 5and 6 the strain-gage locationswere arbitrary and hence the roo

27、t-mean-square stresses shown in figures 5 and 6 are not necessarily comparableA theoreticalprediction of the time to failure for the randomloading is given by the solid curve. This theory is essentially onegiven by Miles (ref. 1) and is based on Miners rule of linear accumu-lation of damage. “-Itcan

28、 be seen that this theoretical curve fits the .data fairly well at low stress levels but is very conservativeat thehigher stress levels.CONCLUDINGREMARKSThe problem of acoustic fatigue of aircraft structureshas beendiscussedwith particular emphasis on a comparison of the fatigue lifedue to discrete-

29、 and random-type loadings. -Inthis regard it appears “ “- -that both the stress level of the test and the type of model are signif- -icant; hen-ce,no generalizationscan be made at this time.
