Workshop on Structural Analysis of Nonlinear Structures

3rd Workshop on Structural Analysis of Lightweight Structures

Natters, May 15, 2014

For future aircrafts, launchers and spacecraft systems the structural lay-out must follow new rules in order to fulfil the requirements of minimum mass with maximum robustness.
To reach the new targets the organizing team made already several projects with leading aerospace companies and agencies about the design of lightweight structures.

The need of new analysis methodologies comes as well from the prime companies as from their suppliers. That means that all structural parts on aircrafts, launchers and spacecrafts will be designed by continuously improved and advanced tools. Obvious is that the rapid development of lightweight structures is more and more driven by car-, construction and mechanical engineering industry.

This workshop will focus on recent developments in the structural analysis of lightweight structures where both theoretical and conceptual aspects in the modelling process and also implementation issues will be discussed.
