Structures (Load Reduction, Structural Efficiency, Topological Optimisers).
Airframes of advanced concept aircraft are benefiting from optimal structural topologies. The efficiency of structures capable of withstanding extreme loads is ever increasing, reducing the overall weight and influence of the airframe on aircraft emissions. Newer and better load alleviation technologies are emerging, and so are beneficial weight reductions inherent in Improved manufacturing processes. The enhanced ability to apply these technologies and improved production processes across a wider range of aircraft sizes also broadens their benefit to the overall fleet.
Important guidance for this effort is provided in the latest revision of SAE document ARP 475 (Guidelines for Development of Civil Aircraft and Systems) and ARP 476124 (Guidelines and Methods for Conducting the Safety Assessment Process on Civil Airborne Systems and Equipment).
