“…These studies used 3% to 5% CX, where the percentage represents the amount by which the hole radius increases as the mandrel is pulled through the hole (at maximum expansion). Chakherlou and Vogwell [9] conducted an analytical and experimental study regarding CX holes. The experimental results showed a significant improvement in fatigue life of CX samples compared to as-drilled samples (generally by a factor of 10 in the number of cycles to failure).…”

“…According to statistics, composite laminates joint is the weakest part of the structures where 60%e80% of structure failure occurs at the fastening joints [1]. The interference fit technology of joint was proved that it can improve the fatigue life of metal structures observably [2,3], but also was pointed out by the McDonnell Douglas Corporation that interference-fit joining improved the fatigue life of carbon epoxy composites [4e6]. Interference fit joints require drilling holes and pressing into the metal pin, which causes nonuniform residual stress and damage to the joints.…”
