Do you want to ensure that your flat, stiffened or curved panels or sub-components can withstand the most extreme environmental conditions and maintain their structural integrity? Unlock the full potential of your development, validation or certification plan, with NLR’s expert testing solutions.
At NLR, we offer cutting-edge testing solutions that can help you achieve your goals. Our state-of-the-art facilities and expert team can simulate all kinds of load conditions, tensile and/or compressive loading, biaxial loading, cabin pressure loading, in combinations with a wide range of temperatures, extending from -180°C to 120°C, and simulate various atmospheric conditions, including dry, humid, corrosive, or saturated environments. Furthermore impacts or artificial defects can be applied or repairs can be performed. This allows you to thoroughly test your panel’s performance under realistic conditions.
NLR can support you with:
- A wide range of panel and sub-component testing facilities, including inspection and calibration systems.
- Static, dynamic, fatigue, and damage tolerance testing, performed according to international standards or customized specifications.
- Evaluation and qualification programs tailored to your needs.
- Mimicking aerospace, space, and off-shore environments in our test conditions to simulate real-world scenarios and to assess the impact of environmental conditions or defect on your panel performance .
- Simulate the effects of extreme temperatures, from cryogenic to high temperatures.
- Determine, validate or certify the buckling behavior of your panel.
- Improve, validate or certify the allowable of your material under bi-axial loading.
- Test a fuselage panel segment under cabin pressure and axial loading.
- Development of your progressive fracture method to predict crack arrest in your fuselage.
- Create or validate your virtual test model.
By partnering with NLR, you can gain a competitive edge in the market and ensure that your products meet the highest standards of quality and performance. Our expert team will work closely with you to develop customized testing programs that address your specific needs and help you overcome even the most complex challenges.
