In this paper, the current state of the art of aircraft wing mass estimation methods is
reviewed. The phases of aircraft design and the development process are discussed. The …

This paper explores the necessary and appropriate level of detail that is required to describe
the structural geometry of aircraft wings accurately enough to predict the mass of the main …

Periodic sound reduction at some frequencies and high pressure loss could be considered
as the disadvantages of simple expansion silencers. Generally, reactive elements are …

Among the principal load-carrying parts of an aircraft, the center wing box yields the main
mechanical load-carrying area and is composed of many structural components and …

The advantages of Multidisciplinary wing development are only gradually being exploited in
an industrial level, largely halted by the inevitable design space complexity arising from the …

This study proposes a novel method for predicting the axial stress of bolts by analyzing their
nonlinear ultrasonic characteristics. We first derive the theoretical relationship between the …

Multicellular thin-walled tubes are widely used due to their lightweight, economical design,
and superior shear and torsional performance. Their design is sometimes governed by the …

A real-time problem of a failing wing, owing to the low yield strength of the aluminum alloy
7050-T7451, is considered for an optimized material selection. Thus, an expert system for …

In questo lavoro l'autore implementa un modello fisico e economico di un crosswind
airborne wind energy system, sviluppato nella tesi, in algoritmo di ottimizzazione gradient …

The advantages of designing a wing while considering the interaction of various disciplines
such as aerodynamics and structures can now be exploited in an industrial level. However …
