load spectrum and usage spectrum
load spectrum and usage spectrum
(OP)
I am new to material fatigue and I have just started doing some work on helicopter fatigue. I am getting confuse about load spectrum and usage spectrum. Are they the same thing? It will be good if someone can provide me a link to an example of each.
RE: load spectrum and usage spectrum
This is where the usage spectrum comes in. Some operators fly this type of fatigue-damaging manoeuvre more than others. The usage spectrum gives you an idea of how often each manoeuvre is performed. Heli-loggers, for example can expect significant fatigue penalties on their dynamic components...
