Anna University B.Tech AE (R13) 5th Aircraft Structures – II Detailed Syllabus

Aircraft Structures – II Syllabus for B.Tech 5th sem is covered here. This gives the details about credits, number of hours and other details along with reference books for the course.

The detailed syllabus for Aircraft Structures – II B.Tech (R13) fifthsem is as follows

OBJECTIVES:

• To provide the students various methods for analysis of aircraft wings and fuselage.
• To provide the the behavior of major aircraft structural components.

UNIT I : UNSYMMETRICAL BENDING     [9 hours]
Bending of symmetric beams subject to skew loads – bending stresses in beams of unsymmetrical sections – generalized ‘k’ method, neutral axis method, principal axis method.

UNIT II : SHEAR FLOW IN OPEN SECTIONS     [9 hours]
Thin walled beams – concept of shear flow – the shear centre and its determination – shear flow distribution in symmetrical and unsymmetrical thin-walled sections – structural idealization – shear flow variation in idealized sections.

UNIT III: SHEAR FLOW IN CLOSED SECTIONS    [9 hours]
Bredt – Batho theory – single-cell and multi-cell tubes subject to torsion – shear flow distribution in thin-walled single & multi-cell structures subject to combined bending torsion – with walls effective and ineffective in bending – shear centre of closed sections.
