ABSTRACT:
The apparatus for testing a fuselage structure having longitudinal and circumferential curvature includes an assembly for applying forces to the fuselage structure. It includes a support capable of supporting the fuselage structure and the assembly for applying forces. The assembly for applying forces is mounted between the support and a force-introduction mechanism interlocked with the fuselage structure, and is capable of applying collinear forces to the fuselage structure. The apparatus can be used to perform tests on an airplane fuselage.
