Method of producing a composite shell element, composite shell element, means of transport and use

摘要

Systems and methods for fabrication of composite shell elements and to the assembly of large scale structures comprising such composite shell elements are provided. The composite shell elements comprise two regions in which the resin is cured to different levels. As a consequence, the flexibility of the first region is greater than the flexibility of the second region. Since the first region defines a bending line, the composite shell element can be deformed along the bending line during assembly of the large scale structure. Thus, tolerances in fabrication of the composite shell elements may be compensated for in a time-efficient manner without the need for applying a shimming process.
