For shorter landing and take-off path in airports, the aircrafts should reduce their speed with keeping high lifting force. This paper is to identify solutions to increase the lift force of the wing significantly under several flight scenarios (such as takeoff and landing) using leading-edge slats and their relationship with the dynamic parameters of the aerodynamic wing. The study is performed by the use of ABAQUS 2016 software. The problem is solved for turbulent flow and 2-dimensional composite wing at constant Reynolds’s number of (6.49 × 105) and constant boundary conditions. Various depths have been used for the auxiliary airfoil at constant width and gap. All stresses at the wing base were obtained. The pressure distribution on the airfoil surface was determined, air velocity distribution was tracked over the surface, lift and drag forces and their coefficients were computed. The results show that the highest value of the lift coefficient is 0.489 at the depth (-3 %) of the wing chord, it decreases when the depth of the slat becomes zero %, and the rise returns with increasing depth to (4 %), but it does not reach the maximum value, while the highest drag coefficient was (1.89) at depth (4 %) of the wing chord. The maximum value of Von Mises stress was found at depth of 4 % with value of 1.605 × 105 Pa.

In structural engineering, thin-walled structures play an important role in the design of the lightweight structural model. It carries different loading conditions when it exists in any model, and it is designed with thin plates or thin shells. Penetrating thin-walled structures with different kinds of holes can decrease their weight and facilitate repair and maintenance operations, such as those carried out for the wing of an airplane. In such applications, cutouts are often employed as part of the design of composite plates. Therefore, this paper attempted to design and analyse the thin-walled composite structure with a C-cross-section shape. To model and analyse the structures, a finite element method was utilized using the ABAQUS commercial tool, and the results of critical buckling load for different laminate types were obtained. Composite materials and structures have different parameters that can vary the results of analysis; therefore, to optimize the current mode a design of experiments method is used via MINITAB 20 and Design-Expert 13 tools. The selected parameters for this work were the opening ratio, spacing ratio, and shape of the hole for the output response as a critical buckling load was carried out. Based on the current results of simulation and optimization, it was found that the parameters of composite materials and structures will impact the output response, and the current study investigated the optimum parameters for the best possible outcome of the structural analysis.

Ribs in aircraft wings maintain the airfoil shape of the wing under aerodynamic loads and also support the resulting bending and shear loads that act on the wing. Aircrafts are designed for least weight and hence the wings are made of hollow torsion box and the ribs are designed with cutouts to reduce the weight of the aircraft structure. These cutouts on the ribs will lead to higher stresses and stress concentration that can lead to failure of the aircraft structures. The stresses depend on the shape of the cutouts in the ribs and thus in the present work, the commercial software ANSYS was used to evaluate the stresses on the ribs with different shapes of cutouts. Four different shapes of cutout were considered to study the effect of cutout shape on the stresses in the ribs. It was found that the best shape for the cutouts on the ribs of wings to reduce weight is elliptical.

This paper investigates the structural behaviour of the wing subjected to the aerodynamic loads during the flight using finite element analysis of wing flexure deformation. In this work, three different types of wing models are established. Material characteristics, the wing structure, and design principles have been taken into account. The assembly of the wing model consists of the thin skin, two spars, and the multi-ribs. The two spars consist of primary and secondary spars. For this study, NACA 23015 is chosen as the baseline airfoil as this airfoil is very similar to the customized airfoil being used in Airbus A320. Two spars mainly bear the bending moment and shear force, which are made of titanium alloy to ensure sufficient rigidity. The skin and wing ribs are made of aluminium alloy to lighten the structural weight; a static structural analysis is applied. Total deformation, equivalent elastic strain, and equivalent von Mises stress are obtained to study the wing's structural behaviour. Furthermore, the modal analysis is then applied. The natural frequencies and the modal shape of the wing for three orders are obtained through the pre-stress modal analysis. The modal analysis results help designers minimize excitation on the natural frequencies and prevent the wing from flutter. According to the results, designers can emphasize strengthening and testing the stress concentration and large deformation area.

The use of finite element analysis is increasingly gaining popularity in the design and analysis of aircraft structures. Also, composite materials in the manufacturing and design of aircraft structures are increasing due to their exceptional properties of high stiffness to weight ratio. Applications include Composite structures are made up of laminates with different fibre orientations, which adversely affects the property of the composites formed. For this study, the three main parts of the aircraft wing are considered for designing: the spars, the ribs, and the aircraft’s skin. The spars and made up of aluminium alloy, and the ribs are made up of structural steel. Two different wing models are designed. For Model 1, the skin is assigned Titanium alloy as a material, and for Model 2, CFRP (Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer) with resin epoxy is used as the skin material. The ribs are made of structural steel and the spars of titanium alloy for both models. This paper aims to compare the materials mentioned above to find the optimum strength to weight ratio. It was found that, for a given uniform load on the bottom of the aircraft’s skin, a weight reduction of 2.37 % was observed in favour of Model 2, the deformation was reduced by 51 per cent, and the von-Mises stress was reduced by ≈ 85%. This paper’s results can be used in manufacturing structural components of UAV, especially the wings due to lighter weight and more flexibility and durability than standard titanium alloys and the significant role played by the orientation of the plies in deciding the strength of the composite.

One of the problems in the aviation world is that accidents are increasing. The increase in incidents and accidents can be caused by several factors including human error, weather conditions, and failure of the structure / component of the aircraft. Accidents that occur from failure factors, one of which is caused by cracks that occur in the structure due to continuous loading which does not become more attention until the failure. In this final project an analysis of damage tolerance is carried out at the Wing Centre, Lower Surface and Skin Access Hole locations. The choice of location is because aircraft wings are the most important component in aircraft control while operating. Damage tolerance analysis is carried out as an effort to minimize failures in aircraft structures due to cracks that arise. Damage tolerance analysis is done by giving load in the form of an aircraft wing, then an analysis of the growth of crack length that occurs due to loading. The result of damage tolerance analysis will be obtained crack length, aircraft flight life cycle, and critical crack value. And in this study will also bring up a recommendation that is the right time to do the inspection interval.
