Description

This report explores the application of new materials in the next generation of subsonic transport aircraft. The study identifies engineering issues related to the introduction of new materials and their expected effect on the life-cycle durability of next-generation commercial transport. The study investigated the likely new materials and structural concepts for the next-generation of commercial aircraft and the key factors influencing applications decisions. Based on these predictions, the report identifies and analyzes the design, characterization, monitoring, and maintenance issues that appeared to be most critical for the introduction of advanced materials and structural concepts.
