Abstract:

Aircraft structure generally experiences different type of loads under running conditions. These loads may be of static or dynamic. Many experiments have undergone to investigate the behavior of the aircraft under these loading. In general Structural, Thermal and CFD analysis were performed to analyses the stresses and deformations that occur under these loads. In addition to the normal loads, aircraft structure undergoes Aero-Dynamic loads which mainly lead to the failure of the structure. Our present work is intended to analyses an aircraft wing structure that is experiencing aero-dynamic loads. Residual stress, deformation are observed under structural and thermal loads. Design of the structure is carried out in SOLID WORKS and analysis is done by using ANSYS software. Finally a comparison between the performance of Aluminum and structural steel is discussed.
