DLR has developed a distributed collaborative MDO environment. A multi-level approach combining highly-fidelity MDA for aerodynamics and structures with conceptual aircraft design methods is employed. Configuration-specific critical loads are used for sizing the structure. It is used to optimize the fuel burn of a long-range wide-body transonic tra...

The paper presents the results of optimization of the flight program for a passenger aircraft. In mathematical modeling, real operational limitations and possible changes in atmospheric parameters were taken into account. The mathematical model is characterized by the description of the flight of an airplane as a material point and the description...

The newly developed airplanes are using composite laminates to replace the metal alloys for different components, such as the fuselage and the wings. The major advantage of the composite materials is to reduce structural weight which results in reducing the fuel consumption. The aim of this project is to investigate the structural integrity of an a...
