Modeling and analysis of multi-functional self-healing material using Runge-Kutta Method for investigation of aircraft wing structure

ABSTRACTThis paper presents the deployment of Runge-Kutta method to overcome the main challenge in analysis of failure of aircraft wing structure subjected to wind pressure and point loading. Failure phenomenon of any structure is time dependents and is typically referred as dynamic in engineering mechanics and is fairly a complex to investigate. In this context, the dynamic analysis concept has successfully implemented by using computer program in SCILAB software. The numerical technique is adopted as Runge-Kutta fourth order (RK4) method for performing dynamic behaviour of wind structure. The demonstration of failure mode of wing structure is based on function of time. The numerical approach is deemed to provide a detailed description of these phenomena affecting the overall dynamic of failure envelope of wing structure. The parametric study is presented; likewise the effect on failure of wing structure by changing different wind pressure, length and moment, respectively. The wing structure is analytically validated against available literature. Finally, others important failure results obtained from this analysis has discussed in detail.KEYWORDS: FEMdynamic failure criteriaRunge-Kutta fourth order (RK4) computational methodANSYS Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).
