Methods of the automated aircraft configuration
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2019, Vol 11, Issue 0
Abstract
Aircraft are great and comprehensive technical systems, which are characterised by the great configuration density. This article presents formation of the geometrical conceptual design of the aircraft on the basis of the formal heuristic procedures within the framework of the infrastructural constraints. In addition, this article includes description of influence of the aerodynamic configuration and the volume-weight configuration upon formation of the geometrical conceptual design of the aircraft, as well as description of other mass/inertia characteristics of the aggregates, which are to be installed within the specific aircraft. This article also states that in the case of the "very strict" infrastructural constraints, it is necessary to solve "the inverse" problem of configuration, that is the problem, where initial data for formation of the geometrical conceptual design of the aircraft are determined by the necessary configuration space, which is determined by the infrastructural constraints. The article presents the project problem (in aggregate) of finding rational values for parameters of the geometrical conceptual design of the aircraft as the problem of the multiple criteria discrete optimisation. This article states that it is possible to formulate this problem as the search of the vector of structural parameters (that is, search of the multitude of the admissible alternatives of the drawing and designing solutions).
