The Process
Step1
•Set up the model: 4 groups of stringers & stiffeners, and 5 groups of panels•The thicknesses of all the panels: 0.002 ≤ t ≤ 0.15 in•The cross sectional area of the stiffeners and stringers: 0.01 ≤ A ≤ 2 sq.in
Step2
•Activate FEADLAB•Feed the program the random numbers for area and thickness within the specific
ranges•Store the data in a matrix
Step3
•Filter the data by using the criteria required for this project: margin of safety (MS) ≥ 0.5, the maximum displacement allowable δall ≤ 1.2 in
•Guarantee: Max (MS) ≤ k*Min (MS). Constant k is empirically picked from the observation of the margin of safety data, i.e.200.
Step4
•The data retrieved will be used to select the lightest weight, which we manually adjust to meet the requirements.
