Abstract
Composite structures used in jet engine nacelle applications designed by Rohr Industries and advantages of this type of construction are briefly reviewed. Composite structures are designed to be durable components having a long service life, but damage from outside sources can occur on a random basis during operational service, necessitating repair or disposition of the damage. Sources of damage, types of damage, and inspection methods used for detecting damage are discussed. Specific repairs and elements of the repair process such as materials, tools and equipment, procedures and techniques are discussed in detail.
