Abstract
ABSTRACT
The strength of a welded truss type fuselage of a light aircraft is considered in this
paper. The fuselage geometry has been extracted experimentally from a built one
and modeled using a CAD package. Aerodynamic loads have been determined
using standard loading calculations accepted in the industry.
Static structural analysis has been conducted using finite element method FEM for
the rear section of fuselage with great consideration to welding complexity. The
result has been found acceptable but further experimental validation is needed.
Presently experimental and dynamic analysis is being conducted and the results will
be published later.
