Abstract: The programs in the structural analysis area of the HOST program emphasized the generation of computer codes for performing three-dimensional inelastic analysis with more accuracy and less manpower. ...

Abstract: Hot flowpath components in aircraft gas turbine engines are subject to a severe operating environment. The large thermal gradients can produce high thermal strains that, when combined with ...

Abstract: The Hot Section Technology (HOST) program has focused on providing methods to solve difficult structural analysis problems. Few structures require as much effort to analyze as the modern aircraft ...
