Problem : Aircraft wing Analysis
The objective is to identify the cross sectional properties and analyze following torsional load
cases for an aircraft wing previously analyzed for bending loads in Phase The wing
geometry and lift distribution remain unchanged.
Torsion: maneuver g pullup
Torsion: runway taxi g dead weight
The airfoil crosssection is assumed to consist of stringers, as depicted in the figure
below. Vertex coordinates of the stringers are provided in the code.
Torsion load
The NACA airfoil creates lift and moment acting at the quarterchord. For stability
the elastic axis must lie behind downstream of of the aerodynamic center chord The
sectional twisting moment torque per unit span wise length about the elastic axis is
mTxmeaecswx
where e is the distance from the aerodynamic center to the elastic axis, cs is the structural
chord perpendicular to the elastic axis. Note bomb is placed such that it induces negligible
torsional moment in the wing.
Extend the provided code to compute results for the wing analysis under torsional loads.
PS For polar moment of inertia, you can just simple use the formula, J Iyy Izz
