Along the Bond Line Groundbreaking Aircraft Structures Metal Bonding Along the bond line Groundbreaking aircraft structures Metal bonding Thousands of years ago man became aware that some substances are really sticky and can be used to fix and assemble parts. This discovery developed into knowledge and art of gluing or bonding, a very useful engineering and manufacturing skill to attach similar or different materials to each other. It is quite obvious to use an adhesive substance from a tin could actually substance made from plants or provide structure to this magical new animals to connect wood to metal of the future. something else. Nevertheless in the The concept of bonding metal to 1930’s something weird and metal was invented in the UK, in the untraditional happened: the age when science and engineering discovery that you could actually bloomed. From then on recipes bond two pieces of metal together gradually improved and became more with some kind of seemingly inferior refined and precise. Fokker was an polymer and that this connection was early adopter and has over 50 years strong beyond expectation. It went of experience with manufacturing even further. This primeval principle adhesively bonded aircraft structures. facilitated bonding of the epitome of Some of the early Fokker F27 progress, the very symbol of passenger aircraft, featuring wings Modernity: aluminium. with bonded wing structures are still Counterintuitive is the word here. It is in service. Metal bonding has proven only logical that many engineers to be a very reliable and flexible simply didn’t believe that a treacly technique for metal part assembly. The thin-walled nature of metal Sample to demonstrate structures turns bonding into an bonding potential excellent construction method, even to the extent to which bonding more thin layers of aluminium with multiple bond lines is an attractive concept to gain quality and save weight, when compared to just metal. Metal bonding is trustworthy far beyond reasonable doubt and it is destined to develop further. Gradually new advantages of metal bonding, concerning design, production, operation, damage resistance and tolerance, have indeed been discovered. The first is bond strength itself. A bonded lap shear joint between two metal sheets can be configured in such a way that, against all odds, over-stressing will cause the metal adherents to fail, and Gulfstream G650 bonded fuselage panel not the adhesive. An even more on aluminium sheets bonded convincing feature emerges when a together with glass-reinforced epoxy stack of thin adhered metal sheet is layer is used as skin material for a used in a structure instead of a large part of the A380 fuselage.

Fibre reinforcement of adhesive layers enhances damage tolerance of bonded stack of sheets even further. When cracks occur in the metal sheet, the fibres will contain the crack opening and considerably reduce crack growth rate. Fokker applies this principle in its ‘Fibre The major part of the Airbus A380 Metal Laminates’ Key Technology. fuselage consists of Glare panels, Glare, a fibre metal laminate based which require no inspection Airframe future The development of airplane manufacturing is an evolution of beliefs, fed by a steady increase in factual knowledge. The first airplanes were made pragmatically, merely to make them function, from materials that were easy to work and readily at hand: wood, rope, linen, a few steel bits. Then times got modern and with that the belief in the potential of metals grew quickly. Before long riveted aluminium became the technology to put your money on. It gained the bias of belief. Because of this from the 1940s onwards almost every airplane is designed as a riveted aluminium structural concept. The birth of metal bonding happened materials, manufacturing and almost simultaneously with the architecture for each part and for upcoming belief in metal structures, every assembly, all to best serve the but was not readily accepted, for lack customer.

It took a while, but now we are a strong option. clearly have arrived in an episode of Fibre metal laminates are a good recognition of the full potential of example of creating such a balanced combining different materials in solution, in which the engineer is structural design. Increasing neither forced to resort to one type of knowledge and experience in material, nor to a particular aluminium and composites: that is composite. Engineers can be perfect what inspires Fokker. No single tailors. Their domain is where material is perfect in every sense. structure and material merge and Finding the right balance is what where material therefore becomes matters.

  • “I Have the Fokker in Sight!”
    “I have the Fokker in sight!” After some delays caused by tropical cyclone “Gita” the first of our two Fokker F27 Friendship aircraft arrived from New Zealand on Monday 27 February. Now registered VH-EWH, the Friendship departed Auckland on Sunday 26 February, stopping to refuel at Norfolk Island before proceeding to Coolangatta to clear customs. The intention was to proceed to Wollongong that same day, but bad weather in the Illawarra dictated an overnight stay at Coolangatta. The second aircraft will be ferried sometime in the next few months. In Australian service the Fokker F27 Friendship was operated from the late 1950’s by many of the domestic and regional airlines. Some of the Australian airlines which operated the type include Trans Australia Airlines, Ansett ANA, East West, Queensland Airlines, Bill Peach’s Aircruising Australia and Airlines of NSW. The type was also operated by the Department of Civil Aviation and CSIRO. The Fokker F27 was developed during the early 1950’s and was intended to compete with or replace piston engine aircraft such as the DC-3. It uses Rolls Royce Dart turboprop engines, is pressurised and, in typical configuration seats around 50 passengers. Our F27s were most recently in service with a company that provided services to New Zealand Post and our Kiwi readers would be well familiar with the sight and unique sounds of the F27s as they made their way around the mail runs. Convair CV-440 progress The return to flight project for our Convair CV-440 made significant progress this month with completion of the new engine installation.

  • DESCRIPTION Fokker 50
    Fokker 50 - Power Plant DESCRIPTION The aircraft is equipped with two Pratt and Whitney PW 125B turboprop engines, which are enclosed, in wing-mounted nacelles. Each engine drives a Dowty Rotol six-bladed reversible- pitch constant-speed propeller. The engine is essentially a twin-spool turbojet combined with a free power-turbine assembly, which drives the reduction gearbox and propeller via a third concentric shaft. Engine layout Air intake The air intake is located below the propeller spinner. The intake has an anti-icing system. Combustion section The combustion section comprises an annular combustion chamber, fourteen fuel nozzles, and two igniters. Fuel control is through combined mechanical and electronic control systems. High pressure spool This spool comprises a centrifugal compressor and a single stage axial turbine. HP-spool rpm (NH) is governed by fuel metering. The spool drives the HP fuel pump and the lubrication oil pumps. Low pressure spool This spool comprises a centrifugal compressor and a single stage axial turbine. The LP spool is ungoverned; it is free to adapt itself to the operating conditions. LP-spool rpm is designated NL. To ease the gas flow paths and to minimize the gyroscopic moment, the LP spool rotates in a direction opposite to the HP spool and power-turbine shaft. Power turbine The two-stage axial power turbine drives the propeller via the reduction gearbox. The propeller shaft line is set above the engine shaft centerline. Propeller rpm is designated NP. The reduction gearbox also drives an integrated drive generator, a hydraulic pump, a propeller-pitch-control oil pump, a propeller overspeed governor, and the NP indicator.

[email protected] [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT The objective of this research article was investigated to evaluate tensile and flexural properties of Glass-fiber-Reinforced Aluminium (Glare) laminates as well as Aluminium sheets of same thickness. In addition to that the tensile and flexural strength of Glare laminates were compared with values of aluminium sheets. In this article, the aluminium based FMLs were fabricated using hand layup technique and cut as per ASTM standards. Three types of layers such as 2/1 Glare, 3/2 Glare and 5/4 Glare laminates were prepared. Computer controlled UTM machine used to determine the tensile, flexural properties and failure mode of the Glare laminates and Plain aluminium sheets with same thickness. From the test results the graphs were plotted for load vs displacement, tensile and flexural strength vs layers thickness. It shows that tensile and flexural strength of Glass-fiber-Reinforced Aluminium (Glare) laminates purely depend on the volume percentage of fibre and it exhibits improvement over the properties of aluminium sheets. Keywords: Glass-fiber-Reinforced Aluminium laminates (Glare), aluminium sheet, hand lay-up technique, tensile property and flexural property.

  • Fokker (Bedrijf) 1 Fokker (Bedrijf)
    Fokker (bedrijf) 1 Fokker (bedrijf) Fokker was de naam van een vliegtuigfabriek, vernoemd naar de stichter Anthony Fokker. Fokker raakte al vroeg in zijn jeugd geïnteresseerd in vliegen. Rond 1910 begon hij met de bouw van zijn eerste echte vliegtuig. Dit vliegtuig werd de "Fokker Spin" gedoopt. Hiermee werd Fokker op 21-jarige leeftijd beroemd toen hij op 31 augustus 1911 ter demonstratie rondjes rond de Grote Kerk van Haarlem vloog. Geschiedenis Anthony Fokker Eerste Wereldoorlog Voor het begin van de Eerste Wereldoorlog ging Fokker in Duitsland wonen waar hij een fabriek in Johannisthal bij Berlijn oprichtte. Later verhuisde de fabriek naar Schwerin. Het eerste bekende en succesvolle vliegtuig dat Fokker produceert was de Fokker Eindecker. Dit vliegtuig bezat als eerste de mogelijkheid door de bladen van de propeller heen te schieten zonder deze te beschadigen. Dit was mogelijk door een mede door Fokker uitgevonden mechanisme dat het machinegeweer blokkeerde wanneer er zich een propellerblad voor de loop bevond, het synchronisatiesysteem. Toen de Duitse regering Hugo Junkers en Een Fokker Dr.I Fokker tot samenwerking dwong, kwam Fokker in aanraking met dikke vleugelprofielen. Deze paste hij toe op twee andere zeer succesvolle vliegtuigen, de Fokker Dr.I Dreidecker en de Fokker D.VII. De Fokker Dr.I werd vooral bekend toen Manfred von Richthofen met dit type ging vliegen. Von Richthofen was de hoogst scorende luchtaas uit de Eerste Wereldoorlog met 80 neergehaalde vliegtuigen. Met zijn vuurrode Fokker Dr.I werd hij de nachtmerrie van de geallieerde piloten. Zijn bijnaam de Rode Baron had hij te danken aan de rode kleur van zijn toestel.

Roelof Vos Summary Multidisciplinary design optimizations have shown great benefits for aerospace applications in the past. Especially in the last decades with the advent of high speed computing. Still computational time limits the desire for models with high level of fidelity cannot be always fulfilled. As a conse- quence, fidelity is often sacrificed in order to keep the computing time of the optimization within limits. There is always a compromise required to select proper tools for an optimization problem. In this final thesis work, the differences between existing weight modeling techniques are investi- gated. Secondly, the results of using different weight modeling techniques in multidisciplinary design optimization of aircraft wings is compared. The aircraft maximum take-off weight was selected as the objective function.
