Topics presented include optimizing wire crimps using Taguchi designed experiments, the use of a reliability model in the fatigue substantiation of helicopter dynamic components, composite structures designed for impulsive pressure loads, and modal analysis of UH-60A instrumented rotor blades. Also presented are resonance and control response tests using a control stimulation device, a facility for helicopter control systems development, the NASA/Army rotor systems flight research leading to the UH-60 airloads program, and the challenges, problems and resolution in the V-22 flight test program.
