An experimental approach to analyze large notched composite panels loaded in out-of-plane shear

Creator:

Froemming, Tyler M.

Abstract:

Identifying material characteristics of composites is important in designing any structural system. The aerospace industry relies on these material properties not only to design a functional aircraft, but also a safe and reliable one. Since carbon fiber composites are relatively new materials, little is known about its characteristics under certain...

A force plate for measuring contact forces during dependent transfers onboard aircraft

Creator:

Schafer, Christopher A.

Abstract:

The transfer of air travelers with disabilities between a mobility aid and an aircraft seat is a major source of injury for both the travelers and the airline personnel assisting in the transfer. The risk to both parties might be reduced through the biomechanical study of the transfer task. Such...
