This is the continuation of a research effort supported initially by an Engage grant in partnership with SPP Canada Aircraft (SPPCA). The multiple phase project described in the initial proposal has progressed extremely well and the research already completed have uncovered potential research areas into fatigue phenomena that may be investigated further as the testing progresses. The Engage Plus will support both the continuation of the first two phases of the project, as described in the original Engage grant proposal, as well as additional variable amplitude tests that will be completed to verify the applicability of the developed fatigue methodology, leading to the development of new software based on a more enhanced version of strain-life fatigue (third phase). The first month of the Engage Plus project will be dedicated to the completion of
