Lecture 07 - Analysis of Fuselage Frames Using The Force Method

This document discusses different methods for analyzing fuselage frames, with a focus on the force method. It provides examples of applying the force method to analyze various aircraft fuselage frames, including the Airbus A300, Boeing 737, Airbus Beluga, Antonov An-225, and Airbus A380. The document outlines the typical loads acting on fuselage frames, such as pressure loads and bending moments. It also discusses analyzing frames using symmetry, applying loads through the superposition principle, and addressing statical indeterminacy. The force method is demonstrated through numerical examples, with flowcharts provided to illustrate the solution process. Additional reading references are given for more information on the force method and analyzing fuselage

Typical loads acting on the fuselage frame are:


- distributed load due to inside pressure;
- concentrated forces;
- bending moments from wings;
- distributed shear load to balance shear forces.

FUSELAGE FRAMES ANALYSIS

When analysing fuselage frames, one must remember


about:
- the usage of symmetry and anti-symmetry;
- internal pressure could be studied separately, basing
on superposition pronciple;
- the internal statical indeterminacy due to the closed
contour:
i  r  c  2  h  2  n  3  d  3  cc
cc – number of closed contours (cells)
