Summary on Grant Application Form
The proposed programme will build on recent and current work at Imperial College. Predictive models will be developed and correlated with the large body of experimental data accumulated by the proposers. The main objectives are to study the durability of repairs subjected to hot/wet environments and to fatigue loading. In addition the effect on efficiency of the size of the repair and any defects in the repair will be investigated.
