TY - CONF A1 - Mair, Georg A1 - Becker, Ben A1 - Scholz, Irene T1 - Assessment of the type of statistical distribution concerning strength properties of composite cylinders T2 - ICCM20 - 20th International conference on composite materials (Proceedings) N2 - Composite materials show a degradation of properties depending on service life. This creates the necessity to find tailored methods to determine strength and residual strength of composite cylinders. The determination can be done e.g. by load cycles tests. The result needs a statistical assessment for the precise description of strength. Especially the statistical assessment of load cycle strength properties has a high uncertainty. It is unclear if a Log-Normal distribution, a WEIBULL distribution or others, describe the scatter behaviour of residual strength properties correctly. Distribution functions aim at approximating the frequency of occurrence of residual load cycle strength for high survival rates. An assumption has to be found and confirmed to prevent over-estimation of reliability.
