Over the years, several civil aircraft accidents with catastrophic consequences have occurred when fragments from in-flight engine failures damaged critical aircraft components. To reduce the probability of catastrophic consequences in future failures, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) established the Aircraft Catastrophic Failure Prevention Research (ACFPR) Program to develop and apply advanced technologies and methods for assessing, preventing, or mitigating the effect of such failures. In support of the ACFPR objective, SRI International is conducting research aimed at developing lightweight barrier systems for turbine engine fragments. This is a report of the progress made during calendar year 2000.
