Structural optimization of a jet trainer wing structure under strength and stiffness related constraints
Adıgüzel, Ozan; Şahin, Melin; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2020-9)
This thesis presents structural optimization studies for a jet trainer aircraft wing structure. The main purpose is to select the most convenient rib/spar layout for T-38 wing like geometry which consists of metallic and composite components by using a finite element modeling and analysis tool of MSC NASTRAN optimization capabilities. In this study, in order to decrease the number of design variables and as well as to be able to obtain smooth thickness transitions between adjacent zones, design variable lin...
Structural optimization of composite and aluminum horizontal tail plane of a helicopter
Arpacıoğlu, Bertan; Kayran, Altan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2019)
This thesis presents structural optimization studies of aluminum and composite material horizontal tail plane structure of a helicopter by using MSC.NASTRAN optimization capabilities. Structural design process starts from conceptual design phase, and structural layout design is performed by using CATIA. In the preliminary design phase, study focuses on minimum weight optimization with multiple design variables and similar constraints for both materials. Aerodynamic load calculation is performed using ANSYS ...
Structural design and evaluation of an adaptive camber wing
Sakarya, Evren; Seber, Güçlü; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2010)
This study presents a camber morphing concept as an alternative to existing plain flap or aileron type hinged control surfaces used in wings. Structural aspects of the concept are investigated with static nonlinear finite element analyses by using MSC Nastran. In order to assess the aerodynamic characteristics; CFD based 2D solutions are obtained using ANSYS Fluent. The camber morphing concept is applied to the full scale hingeless control surface and implemented in the adaptive camber wing. Hingeless contr...
Structural optimization of a composite wing
Sökmen, Özlem; Akgün, Mehmet A.; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2006)
In this study, the structural optimization of a cruise missile wing is accomplished for the aerodynamic loads for four different flight conditions. The flight conditions correspond to the corner points of the V-n diagram. The structural analysis and optimization is performed using the ANSYS finite element program. In order to construct the flight envelope and to find the pressure distribution in each flight condition, FASTRAN Computational Fluid Dynamics program is used. The structural optimization is perfo...
Structural design and analysis of the mission adaptive wings of an unmanned aerial vehicle
Ünlüsoy, Levent; Yaman, Yavuz; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2010)
In this study, the structural design and analysis of a wing having mission-adaptive control surfaces were conducted. The wing structure was designed in order to withstand a maximum aerodynamic loading of 5 g due to maneuver. The structural model of the wing was developed by using MSC/PATRAN package program and that structural model was analyzed by using MSC/NASTRAN package program. The designed wing was then manufactured by Turkish Aerospace Industries Inc. (TUSAŞ-TAI). The finite element analysis results w...
