Abstract:
The DGLR Short Course is arranged for graduated engineers, equivalent professionals and/or managers. It is likewise suitable for specialists in search of a broader perspective as for new-comers to the field. The Short Course gives an insight into the procedures and the multidisciplinary interactions of aircraft conceptual design. The process of iterative synthesis and analysis in aircraft design is illustrated. A software tool for preliminary sizing is demonstrated. Methods and data to enable case studies of subsonic aircraft design are provided. The Short Course "Aircraft Design" covers the following topics: Development Process, Requirements, Certification Standards, Preliminary Sizing, Fuselage Design, Wing Design, Empennage Design, Landing Gear Design and Integration, Aircraft Configurations, Design Evaluation / DOC, and Military Aircraft Development. On completion of the Short Course, delegates a) know aircraft design parameters and methods, b) know the fundamental relationship of aircraft design parameters, c) be able to size and design an aircraft to the detail as covered during the Short Course, d) have a capability to structure aircraft design activities systematically and efficiently.
