Abstract

A special approach is required for repair process as opposed to polymer composite materials monolithic structures testing for it production and operation. The results of repaired monolithic specimens simulating helicopter blade spar fragment research is described at the article. The researches were carried out by ultrasonic pulse-echo technique. It is shown that the repaired monolithic zone testing depending on the repair scheme can be divided into the repair patch material testing and quality testing of its gluing to the main material of the repaired object.
