A CAD-system for the design of stiffened panels in wing box structures

In this paper the CAD system DESTIP is described. DESTIP is developed at the NLR for designing compression panels in wing box structures. Application of the system yields optimal panels in the sense that they meet all the requirements imposed by the designer and have minimum weight per unit width. Weight reductions ranging from 0 to 10% have...

A system for computer aided analysis and design of multi-element airfoils

A program system has been developed as a tool for interactive analysis and design of multi-element airfoils in incompressible viscous flow. A global description of the system is given. It involves the application of three computational methods, one for the analysis of viscous flow and one for the analysis of inviscid flow around multi-element...

CAD-systemen voor overdracht van kennis

The NLR in the Netherlands renders scientific support and technical assistance for the design and operation of aircraft and spacecraft. The approach of NLR can be characterized by integration of experimental and theoretical investigations. For this an integrated computer and terminal network has been developed that links both NLR laboratory...
