(objectives)
The class aims at providing the basic knowledge of aeronautical constructions and structures, with emphasis on regulations, mathematical and technical tools for evaluating their state of stress and strain, and to perform their first-level design. The student will also acquire basic knowledge of aeronautical technologies and materials, including composite materials. The educational path aims to provide the student with the skills to 1) communicate issues relating to the structural design of aircraft with clarity, competence, and language properties; 2) to face, through the acquired analysis methodologies, simple structural problems, evaluating their adequacy to the project specifications; 3) proceed with the first level static design of structural elements typical of aircraft, such as wing structures and fuselage structures.
