Modeling and Analysis of a RIBS and Spars of An Airplane Wing for Bending and Shear Loads

Abstract

The ribs of the wing will give shape to the wing and spar will take most of the bending loads in the wing structure. In the present work, the rib and spars will be designed for twisting, bending and axial loads in terms of size, shape for a particular material considering engine mountings, landing gear, fuel tank attachments in addition to external aerodynamic loads. Analysis will be carried out using Ansys software and the values are validated using the standard theory.
