Air Force researchers model engine stress on B-2 bomber
Air Force Research Laboratory engineers, working with the 780th Test Squadron Aerospace Survivability and Safety Flight at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, have identified an effective method for measuring deformation in the aft deck of the B-2 bomber using a series of special engine tests. The engine test run configuration including manlift with mounted camera bar and test specimen is circled. Photo inset is a three-dimensional map on the test specimen showing out-of-plane deformation due to thermal expansion. (U. S. Air Force photos/Mindy Cooper)
