The problem of the selecting the optimal lay-up stacking of polymer composite materials for the load-bearing elements of the rear part of fuselage structure is considered. The comparison of two approaches to the design of the load-bearing elements is carried out. The first of them is the use of multilayered composite material for the load-bearing elements, the stacking angles of which is selected from a given discrete set, and the second is the use of composite material with a continuous range of variables in fabric lay-up angles. As a result design optimization, it is shown that using an optimization method with a continuous range of lay-angles allows reducing the weight of the load-bearing elements by 12.79%

The paper presents the methodology for designing the load bearing elements of tail section of a light aircraft through the sequential application of methods of parametric and topological optimization. First, we analyzed the loads acting on the aircraft at its maneuvering in the vertical and horizontal planes. Then, for these loads, by the parametric optimization method, we selected the locations of ribs of the tail section of the aircraft, which were subsequently used to develop individual forms of ribs based on the topology optimization method. Next, we carried out parametric optimization of layup angles of polymer composite material, intended for the production of ribs. Finally, we developed a structural layout for the load bearing elements of the fuselage, which meets the criteria of minimum weight when restrictions are imposed on the level of stresses in some layers of the composite material.

One of the significant innovative technologies is the creation of large-sized structures that work for a long time in space and meet stringent restrictions on overall mass characteristics. Among these structures, in the first place, is the section of bearing truss (BT). This article presents the results of experimental studies of sectors of load-bearing trusses of mesh design for compression. Recently, composite mesh cylindrical shells are used as spacecraft housings. The mesh shell is a supporting structure to which the instruments and mechanisms of the spacecraft are attached. The truss section is made of cross-linked polymer composite material with carbon fibers. The objective of the tests is to confirm the possibility of creating a lightweight mesh construction using a carbon fiber reinforced polymer composite material. To achieve this goal, the authors were assigned the following tasks: selection of carbon filler of polymer composite materials (PCM); selection of PCM binder; determination of the degree of carbon fiber reinforcement; choice of the number and orientation paths of spiral ribs, number of ring ribs and the sizes of individual ribs. As a result of the research, the calculated indicators for ensuring the bearing capacity and stiffness under the application of axial compressive load were obtained. At the same time, with the determination of bearing capacity, the deformation characteristics of the structure were twice determined in order to confirm their repeatability, as well as linear nature of the dependence of axial and radial deformations as a result of the applied load.

The analysis of existing aircraft structures made of metal-polymer composite materials is carried out, and a list of them with passport characteristics is compiled. The Fokker F-27 Friendship, Boeing-777 and Airbus A380, which use ARALL and GLARE materials, were selected as the aircraft under study. Formulas are determined and the distribution of normal force flows between metal and composite elements in the composition of MPCM based on aluminum sheets (aluminum-fiberglass – SIAL- 1-1, SIAL-3-1 and SIAL-1441 (9/8)) and titanium alloys (samples of titanium-carbon fiber from the patent-Example 1 and Example 3). To determine these parameters, the formulas used for a composite structure made of different materials are used. On the basis of the specification known MPCM the modified formula mixture rule for calculating the strength of new materials with a given set of orientation angles of PCM and the presence of layers of sheet metal, a comparison with standard mechanical characteristics and to show the efficiency of these formulas. Using these formulas, you can determine the strength characteristics for an arbitrary composition of the MPCM package. The features of the choice of design permissible stresses for the design of the airframe of a mainline aircraft made of metal-polymer composite material are highlighted. The concept of designing aircraft airframe elements using MPCM is considered. The results of this work will allow us to determine the rational components of the metal-polymer composite material and the structure of their distribution in the airframe design at the preliminary design stage.

The use of composite materials has provided designers with increased opportunities for tailoring structures and materials to meet load requirements and changing and demanding environments. This has led to their increased use in structural applications. As with traditional materials the selection of an appropriate material for a design is important. In case of design using composite materials the selection of a material consists of selecting a fiber-resin combination which meets all design requirements. This involves choosing the fiber, the resin, and the proportion of these two constituents in the composite material. The phrase “material selection” refers to the problem of laminate selection. This corresponds to the task of choosing a fiber and resin combination based on technical and economic factors. Materials tailoring, on the other hand, involves manipulating the composition of the composite material to achieve desired properties and it is the selection of a fiber and resin simultaneously but separately. In this paper we present, through an example, a multiobjective optimization-based method for assisting a designer in tailoring composite materials for specific technical and economic objectives.

ABSTRACTOrganic composite materials can be readily found in our daily life, such as plywood used in construction industry and bamboo composites as indoor and outdoor flooring materials. These organic composite material systems consist of cellulose fibers bonded with each other through adhesives, leading to a bonded system with a gradient structure that possesses a unique structural behavior which has a great potential to be used as load-bearing building materials. In view of the manufacturing process of such composite material systems and the structure in-between the cellulose fibers and the adhesives, the interfacial adhesion of such systems at multiscale would play a major role in determining their capability in load-bearing structural applications. In this research work, the interface between cellulose fiber and phenol-formaldehyde adhesive is chosen as a representative of the organic composite material system and molecular dynamics simulation is used for quantifying their mechanical properties and the corresponding interfacial adhesion. Here we demonstrate that cellulose fiber has a strong affinity to a phenol-formaldehyde adhesive with an adhesion energy of 151.3 mJ/m2. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study that reports this material property for cellulose-adhesive system, which is three times larger than that between the gecko foot’s hair and the mineral surface. The mechanism of such strong adhesion is due to the possible hydrogen bonding between the cellulose and the adhesive.
