Abstract

The airframe for civil aviation has to be lightweight because its weight affects the range and fuel-efficiency of aircraft and is different from military aviation. The airframe has to be tolerant for damage due to statistical and dynamic mechanical stresses produced by changes of air pressure and temperature, vibration of engine and aerodynamic turbulence and shocks when it takes off and lands. Aluminum alloys 2024 and 7075 are adopted for the principal substance of construction because its tensile strength is almost as same as that of ferrous alloy and its specific weight is from one third to one fourth of ferrous alloy. The stressed skin semi-monocoque structure is adopted and its stress is analyzed strictly utilizing a finite element method for reducing weight [1].
