In most cases, the external and internal loads do not depend on the structural deformation. From an analysis perspective this means we can compute the internal loads and the external deflections independently. Figure 2.1.1 – Static aeroelasticity encompasses problems involving the intersection between These structural analysis problems are called steady-state aerodynamic and structural statically determinate and include structural deformation interactions. stability problems such as column buckling. However, if the loads and structural deflection interact the structural analysis problem becomes very different, both physically

  • 6. Aerodynamic-Center Considerations of Wings I
    m 6. AERODYNAMIC-CENTER CONSIDERATIONS OF WINGS I AND WING-BODY COMBINATIONS By John E. Lsmar and William J. Afford, Jr. NASA Langley Research Center SUMMARY Aerodynamic-center variations with Mach number are considered for wings of different planform. The normalizing parameter used is the square root of the wing area, which provides a more meaningful basis for comparing the aerodynamic-center shifts than does the mean geometric chord. The theoretical methods used are shown to be adequate for predicting typical aerodynamlc-center shifts, and ways of minimizing the shifts for both fixed and variable-sweep wings are presented. INTRODUCTION In the design of supersonic aircraft, a detailed knowledge of the aerodynamlc-center position is important in order to minimize trim drag, maximize load-factor capability, and provide acceptable handling qualities. One of the principal contributions to the aerodynamic-center movement is the well-known change in load distributionwithMach number in going from subsonic to supersonic speeds. In addition, large aerodynamic-center var- iations are quite often associated with variable-geometry features such as variable wing sweep. The purpose of this paper is to review the choice of normalizing param- eters and the effects of Mach number on the aerodynamic-center movement of rigid wing-body combinations at low lift. For fixed wings the effects of both conventional and composite planforms on the aerodynamic-center shift are presented, and for variable-sweepwings the characteristic movements of aerodynamlc-center position wlth pivot location and with variable-geometry apex are discussed. Since systematic experimental investigations of the effects of planform on the aerodynamic-center movement with Mach number are still limited, the approach followed herein is to establish the validity of the computative processes by illustrative comparison wlth experiment and then to rely on theory to show the systematic variations.

  • Simplified Method of Applying Loads to Flat Slab Floor Structural Model
    MATEC Web of Conferences 219, 03002 (2018) https://doi.org/10.1051/matecconf/201821903002 BalCon 2018 Simplified method of applying loads to flat slab floor structural model Maciej Tomasz Solarczyk1,*, and Andrzej Ambroziak1 1Gdańsk University of Technology, Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Narutowicza 11/12, 80-233 Gdańsk, Poland Abstract. The article analyses the impact of the live load position on the surface of a reinforced concrete flat slab floor of 32.0 m × 28.8 m. Four variants of a live load position are investigated: located on the entire concrete slab, set in a chessboard pattern, applied by bands and imposed separately in each of the slab panels. Conclusions are drawn upon differences in bending moments, the time of calculation and the size of output files. The problems in the interpretation of results are presented too. A procedure is presented to model the reinforced concrete structures in computational programs. The recommendations of the Eurocodes are presented regarding to load combinations in the Ultimate Limit State (ULS). Convergence analysis of the finite element mesh is carried out to verify the obtained results. The law status on the implementation of the Building Information Modelling (BIM) technology in Poland points out significant time savings in the application of this technology. 1 Introduction Structural design is generally based on virtual mapping of a real object. The designer is supported by a number of computational tools to complete the task. A widespread automation of design works makes it available for the engineers with little experience. It should be emphasized that the results of numerical analysis should be permanently and critically assessed by the designer after computations.

  • Introduction to Aeroelasticity.Pdf
    Aeroelasticity Dr. Ugur GUVEN Aerospace Engineer (P.hD) Nuclear Science and Technology Engineer (M.Sc) What is Aeroelasticity • Aeroelasticity is broadly defined as the interaction between the aerodynamic forces and the structural forces causing a deformation in the structure of the aerospace craft as well as in its control mechanism or in its propulsion systems. Importance of Aeroelasticity • Aeroelasticity has become a very important force especially after the 1950’s. • The interaction between aerodynamic loads and structural deformations have gained great importance in view of factors related to the design of aircraft as well as missiles. • Aeroelasticity plays at least some part on fuel sloshing as well as on the reentry of spacecraft in astronautics. Trends in Technology • Due to the advancements in technology, it has become quite common to see the slenderness ratio (ratio of length of wing span to thickness at the root) increase. • The wing span area as well as the length of aircrafts have increased causing aircraft to become much more susceptible to interaction between structural loads and aerodynamic loads Slenderness Ratio Effect of Aerodynamic Loads • The forces of lift and drag as well as torsion moment will have some sort of effect on the structural integrity of the spacecraft. • In many cases, some parts of aircraft or spacecraft may bend or ripple slightly due to these loads. • The frequency of these loads and effects can also cause the aircraft’s structure to suffer from metal fatigue in the long run. Scope of Aeroelasticity Vibration • One of the ways in which aerodynamic and structural forces collide with each other is through vibration.

  • Lifting Surface Lift and Pitch Considerations
    Stability and Control Some Characteristics of Lifting Surfaces, and Pitch-Moments The lifting surfaces of a vehicle generally include the wings, the horizontal and vertical tail, and other surfaces such as canards, winglets, etc. What they all have in common is that there purpose is to create an aerodynamic force and moment. Whether the surface is infinite (2-D) or finite (3-D), we can assign to it a force and moment. Usually we designate a 2-D lifting surface as an airfoil, and a 3-D lifting surface as a wing (or tail, or winglet, of whatever). Here all lifting surfaces will be assigned the name - wing. Generally the information concerning forces and moments on a wing are determined from wind tunnel tests or from computer codes. Unlike a force, a moment must be referred to a specific reference point. Often time the information given is not referenced to the point of your interest. Consequently we would like to be able to convert results referenced to one point to equivalent information with respect to a different reference point. We will later use these same ideas applied to a complete aircraft. Consider two identical wings mounted in a wind tunnel. One wing is supported at point A, and the other at point B. At each of these support points there is an electronic “balance” used to measure the forces and moments acting on the wing at those respective points. For simplicity the wings will be represented as flat plates. Si nce the wings are identical we can expect that the aerodynamic forces will be the same.

  • Deflection-Based Aircraft Structural Loads Estimation with Comparison to Flight
    Deflection-Based Aircraft Structural Loads Estimation With Comparison to Flight Andrew M. Lizotte* and William A. Lokos† NASA Dryden Flight Research Center, Edwards, California, 93523-0273 Traditional techniques in structural load measurement entail the correlation of a known load with strain-gage output from the individual components of a structure or machine. The use of strain gages has proved successful and is considered the standard approach for load measurement. However, remotely measuring aerodynamic loads using deflection measurement systems to determine aeroelastic deformation as a substitute to strain gages may yield lower testing costs while improving aircraft performance through reduced instrumentation weight. With a reliable strain and structural deformation measurement system this technique was examined. The objective of this study was to explore the utility of a deflection-based load estimation, using the active aeroelastic wing F/A-18 aircraft. Calibration data from ground tests performed on the aircraft were used to derive left wing-root and wing-fold bending-moment and torque load equations based on strain gages, however, for this study, point deflections were used to derive deflection-based load equations. Comparisons between the strain-gage and deflection-based methods are presented. Flight data from the phase-1 active aeroelastic wing flight program were used to validate the deflection-based load estimation method. Flight validation revealed a strong bending-moment correlation and slightly weaker torque correlation.
