Aloha Airlines Accident – April


3
1988.

The aircraft lost 1/3 of its roof due to a stress fracture while cruising at 24,000 feet.
One Flight Attendant was sucked from the airplane, which subsequently made a
safe emergency landing.

Failure events.

Comet Aircraft (1950’s)

Two aircrafts after climbing


certain altitude underwent
explosive decompressions of
fuselage that resulted in loss of
lives and aircraft.

Cabin pressurization and


depressurization led to fatigue
loading.

Classification of Failures.
8

 Problems with loads and design.


 Problems with inspection, maintenance and repair.
 Problems due to operating environment.
 Despite several great strides in technology, failures
continue to occur, often with loss of human and
economic loss.
 Failure analysis provides an opportunity to understand
the intricate relationship between design, operation of
components, failure modes so that we can correct
designs, issue guidelines for operation and maintenance
to avoid recurrence of such events.

 High temperature (varying temperature)


 Power-plant rotor components / turbines / compressors.
 Corrosive environment
 Marine structures / Chemical plant components.
 Low Temperature
 Structures working in Arctic regions / cold regions.
 Humidity levels
 More applicable for polymeric composite structures.

Small specimen test methods


• Test Methods to evaluate:

– Tensile properties (σy.s, σUTS, % Elongation, K and n)

– Fracture properties (K1c, KJc, J1c).

– Impact strength properties (CVN energy).

– Fatigue Properties (failure life, crack growth).

– Transition temperature (DBTT).

Basics of Indentation Testing.


 Instrumented Indentation test has been
proposed to be a better option among non-
conventional tests to determine σ-εproperties.
 Indenters: Prismatic, Cylindrical, Spherical
 Strain beneath the indenter is a function of
penetration depth for spherical indenter which
helps in derivation of stress-strain curve.
 Shallow indentation impressions are less
damaging for the component.
 Point to point variation of properties can be
measured.

135

Automated ball indentation test


method.
• A non-destructive method of
evaluating the tensile properties of
materials.
• Strain controlled multiple
indentations at a single location on a
polished surface using a tungsten
carbide spherical indenter.
• Max. depth of penetration is about
15-20% of indenter diameter.
• Load-displacement record provides
the basis for property evaluation.
