Airframe
manufacturers
are
continuously
creating
innovative
designs,
making
greater
use of
new
lightweight
materials
and
increasing
their
focus on
passenger
comfort.
Achieving
a
perfect
balance
between
these
competing
requirements
represents
a
tremendous
challenge
for the
design
and
engineering
of the
airframe.
The
development
and
design
of
Aero-structures
is a
complex,
multi
disciplinary
exercise.
Today,
our Aero
structure
team is
working
with
major
aircraft
manufacturers
on
technologies
not only
to
reduce
the
structural
weight
of their
aircraft,
but are
also
searching
for
structural
concepts
that
will
lead to
cost
reduction
in terms
of
design
time,
fabrication
and
maintenance
costs.
