Analytical model for aircraft design based on Design for Excellence (DFX) concepts and use of composite material oriented to automated processes

摘要

This paper focuses on a development of a design analysis model that uses the requirements and concepts of Design for Excellence and the composite materials for specific application to the aeronautical design aiming to automation process. Its main goal is to drive the engineers who work on product development phase about the automation benefits that can be achieved when this proposed analytical model is used. A case study is presented to validate the analytical model's effectiveness.
