Comparison of Residual Stress State on Sheets Faying Surface after Standard and NACA Riveting-Numerical Approach

One crucial characteristic of the aircraft structure are fatigue properties and rivets are usually critical areas in metal airframes due to fatigue cracks nucleation. According to literature, the NACA riveting method offers a huge increase in fatigue life of riveted lap joints. This paper presents F...
