Abstract:Increasing the environmental sustainability of aviation is a key design goal for commercial aircraft for the foreseeable future. From the perspective of structural engineering, this is accomplished through reducing the mass of aircraft components and structures. Advanced manufacturing techniques offer new avenues for design, enabling more complex structures which can have highly tailored properties. One advanced manufacturing concept is the use of 3D printed polymer preforms that are coated with nanocrystallin… Show more
