Improving Dynamic Finite Element Analysis of Aircraft During Landing

这个博士生项目是与空中客车公司合作的。它旨在确定新的动态建模技术，以改进空客民用飞机动态着陆模拟中看到的飞机加速度响应预测，并通过飞行测试测量进行验证。该项目还包括通过实验测试进行进一步演示的潜力。iCASE奖学金的工业赞助商空中客车公司认识到有必要改进预测，以帮助更好地理解未来可能需要容纳大型集中质量（例如氢气罐，燃料电池或电池）的可持续飞机设计空间中潜在的新结构配置。博士学位将涉及分析、数值和实验工作的结合，可能需要进一步的学术培训，由ISVR和工程学院提供的教学技术模块提供。需要解决的实际物理工程问题与提供工业输入、反馈和支持的组合应该在结构动力学领域具有足够的新颖性、研究内容和工业应用，并可转移到许多其他应用中。

This PhD studentship project in collaboration with Airbus. It aims to identify novel dynamic modelling techniques that improve aircraft acceleration response predictions seen during Airbus' dynamic landing simulations for civil aeroplanes when validated against flight test measurements. The project also includes the potential for further demonstration through experimental testing. Airbus, the industrial sponsor for the iCASE studentship, recognises the need to improve the predictions to assist in better understanding potential new structural configurations in the design space of sustainable aircraft that might need to accommodate large concentrated mass (e.g. Hydrogen tanks, fuel cells or batteries) in the future.The PhD will involve a combination of analytical, numerical and experimental work possibly requiring further academic training provided by taught technical modules given by the ISVR and the School of Engineering.The mix of a real physical engineering problem requiring solutions, and the provision of industrial input, feedback and support should have sufficient novelty, research content and industrial application in the field of structural dynamics that is transferable to many other applications.
