Abstract: Abstract In this study, low-velocity impacts were applied to an aircraft wing box fabricated by co-curing its spar and skin. The impact points were located at the bay (type A), the T joint (type B),… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Benefiting from curved fibre paths, variable-angle-tow (VAT) fibre composites feature a larger design space than traditional straight-fibre reinforced plastics. Herein, an optimisation framework of a full-scale wing-box structure with VAT-fibre composites is presented, aiming… read more here.
