Aircraft structural design and analysis
Ensure airworthiness through integrated structural design processes
It’s time to stop throwing away money with outdated processes. This webinar will present you with proven strategies to reduce aircraft certification time and cost overruns with integrated structural design and analysis.
Airworthiness is the most important certification for aerospace companies, where structural assessment is the most critical contributing factor. Since up to 60% of aircraft non-recurring costs can be spent on structural development and achieving airworthiness certification, any process optimization can tremendously impact your program budget.
Aircraft structural design approach
Traditional structural analysis is disconnected from structural design. This results in prolonged development cycles and program cost overruns.
Join this webinar to see how an integrated aircraft structural design and simulation process enables you to accelerate airworthiness certification by:
- Generating flight, ground and aeroelastic loads in a single environment.
- Synthesizing and managing critical load cases for global and detailed FE models directly coupled to the CAD model.
- Computing margin of safety calculations with traceable certification reports.

Aerostructure design use case with General Atomics Aeronautical Systems
See how General Atomics accelerates aircraft design through tool integration and automation. Phu Nguyen presents an aerostructure design use case to show you how to:
- Automate the creation of parametric CAD geometry with a consistent style guide.
- Automate CAE geometry that updates with CAD changes.
- Automate CAE model creation with pilot programs demonstrated using an integrated toolchain for aeroelasticity, CFD and FEA.
- Connect all models in an integrated design environment suitable for multidisciplinary design optimization.
General Atomics reduced detailed structural design time by 25 percent. What impact would that have on your program?
