Design and Analysis

 

Highly adapted wing design with carefully blended wing-body and area ruled fuselage form the basis for unbeatable performance of LCA. Built-in aerodynamic instability imporves ability and maneuverability.  Wind tunnel tests on scale models and Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD)analyses have successfully been used to design and freeze the complex aerodynamic configuration of the LCA, and further to generate comprehensive aerodynamic data for Control Law design, flight simulation, performance prediction and structural design.

 

Creating a Numerical Master Geometry (NMG) of the complete aircraft and CAD modeling of every component of the LCA, served the needs of computational analyses including CFD and Finite Element Analysis of the Airframe and other structural components.  DigitalPrototype Assembly (DPA) and Virtual Prototype of LCA built using CAD models of the components and Line Replaceable Units (LRUs)have enabled studies on assembly, sequencing, maintainability, lofting and looming.

 

 

 

An Enterprise-wide Product Data Management (EPDM) environment has been created for the LCA Programme to streamline and manage the entire product definition life cycle, to create, manage, share and re-use engineering and product definition date, documents and relation among them from initial stages of design and analysis to final production.
