dc.description.abstract | Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a computer based mathematical techniques to obtain approximate numerical solutions for the study of structures physical behaviors in response to external influences. This project was about setting up a tapered wing finite element model by using MSC Patran and analyzing it with MSC Nastran. Before modeling could be done, the air loading that acted on wing during cruise flight condition was first determined. Thereafter, the wing model which was consisting of 1D and 2D elements was built for computational analysis. In order to ensure the model built in Patran was representing the reality, hand calculations were done for verifications. From the results obtained, the verification of constraint forces acting on the model differ 7.39% from that in theoretical calculation. Meanwhile, the direct stresses due to bending moments and axial loads for a typical cross-sectional structural members were having percentage difference ranging from 9% to 31%. Hence, the wing model was verified to be generally close to reality. | |
