Thank you for the replies. I emailed MSC and they provided the file. I have attached it incase anyone else wants it. Stressbro http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=b8c2f280-f958-4aac-99e7-4d3c905e6744&file=NASTRAN_common_qa_1993.pdf

Does anyone have the pdf of this book? I think it was last printed in 1993 and I can't seem to find it on MSC's website. I've seen the print before and it's a very nifty book Thanks Stressbro

Thank you! (Oh Wikipidea I have a love hate relationship with )

Could someone please clarify the difference between a longeron and a stringer? Thanks

Thanks everyone, I just purchased: Broek's Practical Use of Fracture Mechanics and also Metal Fatigue in Engineering by Fatemi, Ali Hopefully these two texts combined will be a good introduction before using tools such as NASGRO.

Rb1957 Could you recommend some good literature on fatigue, damage tolerance and crack growth? I have Niu but would like a little more detail. Thanks
