Research abstract

A RESEARCH PROGRAM WILL BE PERFORMED TO PRODUCE A MORE COMPLETE UNDERSTANDING OF FASTENING SYSTEMS FOR ADVANCED COMPOSITES. THIS WILL INCLUDE EVALUATIONS OF CURRENT PRODUCTION FASTENER SYSTEMS AS WELL AS A CANDIDATE SYSTEM BASED ON THE USE OF A COLD EXPANSION PROCESS TO PERMANENTLY INSTALL THIN WALL PROTECTIVE GROMMETS IN FASTENER HOLES IN COMPOSITIES. THESE FASTENER SYSTEMS WILL BE TESTED FOR INTERFACE REQUIREMENTS WITH ADVANCED COMPOSITE MATERIALS. THIS PROGRAM WILL DETERMINE THE POTENTIAL FOR USING THE COLD EXPANSION GROMMET INSTALLATION SYSTEM AS THE FOUNDATION OF A FASTENER SYSTEM THAT WILL PERMIT THE USE OF STANDARD AEROSPCE FASTENERS IN COMPOSITE JOINING APPLICATIONS.
