Structural design and material comparison for aircraft wing box beam panel.

This paper aims to present a comprehensive investigation to obtain the structural calculations needed to design a rigid panel of aluminum alloy for the wing box beam of an ATR 72-500 aircraft. For this design process, several types of materials, including composites like CFRP, are considered so it is possible to compare the actual existing part made of aluminum to them, thus checking the advantages these new materials offer. The research presents an introduction to structural design and provides a study of the relevant literature.

A novel method for the natural frequency estimation of the jet engine turbine blades based on its dimensions.

This study provides a novel methodology for the natural frequency estimation of the jet engine turbine blade by using the dimension check. This paper presents a summarization of the ongoing research devoted to the method for the turbine blade natural frequency estimation. The main target of the research presented in the paper is to develop a novel method that can calculate the natural frequency of a particular turbine blade by using the dimensions of investigated turbine blade from a dimension check.

Selected Aspects of Navigation System Synthesis for Increased Flight Safety, Protection of Human Lives, and Health.

Accurate navigation systems allow us to optimize the trajectory of flying objects and thus solve environmental problems in aviation and their impact on public health. In this paper, we present one of the methods of assessment of accuracy and resistance to interference of distance-measuring equipment (DME). By using computer technology, the method enables us to determine the potential but also the real error measuring the distance of the flying object from DME.
