Weltkriegs ausschließlich mit der Herstellung von Metallflugzeugen beschäftigt hat- ten. Zunächst wurden intensive Grundsatzforschungen zu allen Fragen der Verwendung von Metall im Flugzeugbau be- trieben und an der methodischen Entwicklung von Verfahren zur Herstellung von Ganzmetallflugzeugen gearbeitet. In die- ser Zeit gewann ZWL wertvolle Erfahrungen sowohl bei der Konstruktion als auch beim Bau, die sich in einer großen Zahl von Patenten im In- und Ausland niederschlugen. Als Baustoffe kamen nur Stahl und Duraluminium zur Verwendung. Während für hochbeanspruchte Teile wie Holme, Mo- torlagerungen, Stiele usw. grundsätzlich gehärteter Stahl benutzt wurde, verwendete man für Flügel, Rümpfe, Boote, Schwimmer, Spieren usw. hauptsächlich Duraluminium. Insbesondere dieses Leichtmetall bereitete bei seiner Verarbei- tung zunächst große Schwierigkeiten, vor allem mußte erst eine geeignete Warmbehandlung entwickelt werden. Hinzu kam, daß sich Duraluminium nur sehr schwer schweißen läßt, so daß auch die Verbindung der einzelnen Teile neue Ver- fahren erforderlich machte. Ebenso bedeutsam war die Entwicklung optimaler Querschnittsformen von Profilen aus Stahl und Leichtmetall. Umfang- reiche Belastungsversuche mit Holmen, Spieren, Stielen, Flächen und ganzen Flugzeugen lieferten die für die Berechnung der Flugzeuge auf statische Festigkeit notwendigen Daten.

I don't believe you, you're kidding me.“ Frühe Fluggeräte, ob schwerer oder leichter als Luft, bestanden aus Materialien, die uns heute im besten Fall als ungeeignet erscheinen. Bambus und Stoff weckten aber auch das Misstrauen der frühen Flugzeugbauer und -nutzer. Das revolutionäre Technologiesystem Flugzeug sollte von jeher aus den modernsten Materialien bestehen, ganz gleich ob sie immer wirklich die geeignetsten waren. Dieses Dogma hat bis heute nichts an Gültigkeit verloren. Und bis heute verursacht dieser Zwang zu den aktuellsten Materialien oft mehr Probleme als er löst. Das Beispiel Flugzeugbau bietet interessante Antworten auf die Frage, warum sich Technologien durchsetzen bzw. eben nicht durchsetzen. Es beweist, wie entscheidend und unterschätzt der Einfluss des Nutzers auf die Entwicklung einer Technologie ist. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS Vorwort des Reihenherausgebers Rolf-Jürgen Gleitsmann 1.

  • Dornier Do-J „Wal“ (Whale)
    MooseAir #5: Dornier Do-J „Wal“ (Whale) 23. April 2008 MOOSEAIR #5 Version 1.0.0 DORNIER DO-J „WAL“ (WHALE) The „Whale“ was one of the most successful flying boats in German aircraft history. After its maiden flight on 6 November 1922 more than 250 Whales were produced and flown all around the world. Most famous was probably the „Amundsen-Whale“ used by the Norwegian explorer to fly to the North Pole, but also other re- cord flights were undertaken in the 20s and 30s of the last century. The Dornier „Wal“ (Whale) was one of the best-known and most successful flying boats ever developed. The aircraft was gigantic against other aircraft of its day. It completed its maiden flight on No- vember 6, 1922 and its total production ran to more than 200 exam- ples. To avoid violating the terms of the Treaty of Versailles, from July 1922 production of the flying boat was carried out at Pisa in Italy on the premises of Costruzioni Meccaniche Aeronautiche S.A. (CMASA), a company that had been founded especially for the purpose.

He is not the foremost German aviation pioneer with a name surviving to this day. I came across Dr.-Ing.
