Modeling and Structural Analysis of Aircraft Wing with Different Materials Using FEM

Abstract

Aircraft Wing structure consists of skin, ribs and spar sections. The spar carries flight loads and the weight of the wings while on the ground. Other structural and forming members such as ribs are attached to the spars, with stressed skin. The wings are the most important lift producing part of the aircraft. The design of wings may vary according to the type of aircraft and its purpose. Experimental testing of wing structure is more expensive and time consuming process. In this project detailed design of aircraft wing structure made by using CATIA V5 R20. Then structural analysis of the wing structure is carried out to compute the stresses at wing structure. The stresses are estimated by using the finite element approach with the help of ANSYS-14.5 to find out the Stresses, strains, shear stress, total deformations of the structure of the using different materials Al6061, S2 Glass, carbon epoxy, finally concluded the suitable material for the air craft wing.
