The MEA Evolution in Commercial Aircraft and the Consequences for Initial Aircraft Design
Abstract: An important objective in commercial aircraft design is to develop a ’greener’ aircraft. This objective poses many challenges in many fields of aircraft design. The push towards a more environment friendly, efficient and cost effective design has recognized the ‘MEA (more-electric aircraft)’ as a means to contribute towards realizing this goal. The more-electric aircraft can be thought of as an evolutionary concept where non-electrically powered systems and components are gradually …

Buckling Strength of Metallic and Composite Plates with Small and Large Hole at Different Locations
Abstract: Most of the aircraft structures will experience a buckling phenomenon due to compressive loads. The cutouts like system small and large holes, lighting holes etc. are introduced in the aircraft structure at different locations for accessing aircraft inside and for passing electrical wires and ducts. The stress rises around these holes due to removing area in the panel and buckling phenomena will become further critical in aircraft structures. The cutouts …
