Fatigue is an important failure mode that can occur in the airplane structures. General concepts around fatigue and various design criteria against fatigue failure for airplane certification will be discussed here. In addition, the evolution of the regulatory design requirements and unfortunate accidents that lead to such evolution will be briefly talked about. This presentation also provides an overview of the structural Damage Tolerance concepts and describes how the fracture mechanics based knowledge is used in practice.

About the Presenter
Dr. Chul (Charles) Park is Associate Technical Fellow of The Boeing Company and Senior Lead Engineer at Boeing Commercial Airplanes (BCA) in Everett, Washington. He is responsible for developing Damage Tolerance analysis methods and design allowables to comply with regulatory safety requirements. He supports all BCA Airplane Programs and some BDS (Defense & Space) Programs. As principal instructor of the Boeing’s internal “Structures University”, Dr. Park teaches multi-day Damage Tolerance classes to BCA, BDS and Global Partner engineers.
Prior to joining Boeing, Dr. Park worked as Durability & Damage Tolerance Engineer at the Eclipse Aviation Corporation in Albuquerque, New Mexico. At Eclipse, he developed Damage Tolerance analysis methods to successfully certify the Eclipse 500 aircraft built by the innovative Friction Stir Welding (FSW) technology. Before working for Eclipse Aviation, he worked on a military fighter program as Durability & Damage Tolerance Engineer in South Korea. Dr. Park received his Doctorate Degree from Purdue University and Master’s and Bachelor’s Degrees from Korea Advanced Institute of Science & Technology (KAIST).
