Abstract
This paper describes a series of examinations and the fracture analysis of burst rubber fuel hosepipes on aero-engines. The bursting of the hosepipes was caused by fatigue failure and major reasons are improper design of hose pipe structure, low fatigue bearing capacity and severe deformation in moun ting.
