Joining of Different Type “Wing-Body” Surfaces of Aircraft Structure K. Leonavi?ius, Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, Antanas Gustaitis Aviation Institute Contents Introduction 3D models in aviation Modern modeling methods Basic types of surfaces Types of surfaces joining FUSELAGE – fin joining fuselage - FIN joining FUSELAGE – FIN joining Examples of models Conclusion Joining of Different “Wing-Body” surfaces of Aircraft Structures 3 Development of the 3D model – one of the most important stage of a design process in aviation. Complex shapes in aviation - new possibilities of high technology: Modern computer aided design (CAD) and analysis (CAE) software Computerised manufacturing (CAM), new composite materials and technology There is the strong demand of new 3D design methods of complex shape objects in aviation Differences between aircrafts and other objects (cars, ships) shapes One “Skin” instead of separate “Faces” Development of aircrafts shapes Lines, arcs - Conic curves – splines, Bezier curves Assimilation of separate airplane shapes (nose-cabin-tail) into one smooth surface. Joining of fuselage and wing surfaces Shape is closely related to form of internal content – crew, load, powerplant, etc. Influence of aerodynamic – max laminar flow, min drag area Influence of strength – optimization of shape and weight Influence of high tecnology - CAM New composite materials Buttock-planes method Radiusography Method of Conic curves Splain, NURBS curves methods Types of surfaces “FUSELAGE – fin” type joining “fuselage – FIN” type joining “FUSELAGE – FIN” type joining Conclusions * * Riga 2002 Joining of Different “Wing-Body” surfaces of Aircraft Structures 2 Introduction Some features of aircraft modeling Joining of Different “Wing-Body” surfaces of Aircraft Structures 4 3D design of light airplane Curve of Zmax Joining of Different “Wing-Body” surfaces of Aircraft Structures 5 Basic methods of airplane shape design Joining of Different “Wi
