Combine with other filters →Simulate Landing Gear Impact
Discover how much force hits the landing gear at touchdown—before building anything.
Use Siemens Simcenter student tools to set up and run a structural simulation of a landing gear drop test, visualize stress and deformation under impact loads, and identify whether the design meets safety requirements. Learn how engineers prove aircraft components are strong enough without breaking them.
Start Project →Wing Structural Analysis in Simcenter
Put a wing box through its paces with industrial FEA before it ever flies.
Perform a complete finite element analysis of a wing box structure under flight loads using Siemens Simcenter Nastran. You will build a shell-element wing box model, apply aerodynamic pressure loads from a VLM solution, run static, buckling, and fatigue analyses, and produce a certification-quality stress report.
Start Project →Optimise Wing Rib Spacing with FEA
Place ribs where the loads are—not where tradition says.
Use SolidWorks and ANSYS to investigate whether non-uniform rib spacing in a wing structure can reduce weight or stress compared to evenly spaced ribs. You will design a wing box, run static structural simulations under bending loads, and compare uniform versus load-adapted rib layouts to find a more efficient internal structure.
