Need to study structural mechanics to design properly to prevent failure There is no doubt that any of the disciplines of Aeronautics and Astronautics can contribute to an accident -engine failure -etc. But, the vast majority of non-human induced accidents is due to structural
Before we look specifically at thin-walled sections, let us consider the general case (i.e, thick-Walled) Hollow thick-walled sections Figure 12.1 Representation of a general thick-walled cross-section 中=c2 on one boundary φ=c1 on one boundary This has more than one boundary(multiply-connected do=0 on each boundary
Handout 2: Gain and Phase margins Eric Feron Feb6,2004 Nyquist plots and Cauchy's principle Let H(s) be a transfer function. eg H(s)= s2+s+1 (s+1)(s+3) Evaluate H on a contour in the s-plane. (your plots here)
