Abstract:Based on the introduction of the concept of aircraft structural life envelope (ASLE), the basic approach and practical engineering method of determining ASLE by experiments under the baseline operational conditions are presented, as well as the basic approach and practical engineering method of determining ASLE by experiments under non-baseline operational conditions. The determination of ASLE will pave the way for Service Life (i.e. fatigue life and calendar life ) Supervision for Individual Aircraft Structural System.
