Preliminary Aerodynamic and Structural Tests Showing the Effect of Compressive Load on the Fairness of a Low-Drag Wing Specimen With Chordwise Hat-Section Stiffeners

Description: Report presenting an investigation that is part of a research program to obtain structures suitable for low-drag wings. The purpose of this particular investigation was to study the drag characteristics of an NACA 66(215)-(1.25)16 airfoil specimen of two-spar construction with hat-section chordwise stiffeners after a compressive load comparable with the maximum applied flight load of a modern military airplane has been applied and removed. Results regarding the variation of section drag coeffic… more

Results of Laboratory Scale Fracture Tests on Rock/Cement Interfaces

Description: A number of pure cement and cement-basalt interface samples were subjected to a range of compressive loads to form internal fractures. X-ray microtomography was used to visualize the formation and growth of internal fractures in three dimensions as a function of compressive loads. This laboratory data will be incorporated into a geomechanics model to predict the risk of CO2 leakage through wellbores during geologic carbon storage.
