The present proposal aims the constitution of the Engineering Research Center for the Aerial Mobility of the Future (ERC-AMF) having ITA as the host institution, Embraer as the industrial partner, and the participation of researchers from two other universities located in the State of São Paulo, namely, Unicamp and EESC/USP. The ERC-AMF has, as its general objective, the realization of R&…
The digital transformation is still little consolidated in Brazilian society. Improvements in performance and differentiation resulting of such transformation have not yet been fully absorbed in companies and in the public administration. In general, solutions required for implementing the digital transformation in cities and in manufacturing processes combine advanced connectivity and au…
The main feature of advanced composites is the high specific stiffness. However, the complexity in certification and damage control behavior is a restrictive factor for the aeronautical application that meets the mechanical requirements of application and maintenance. In order to measure the physical behavior of crack propagation in laminated composites, there was an absence of studies th…
The composite material application at several industrial segments has been increasing significantly throughout the last years. This trend is due mostly to the fact that these materials present high specific resistance and rigidity, excellent fatigue performance, corrosion resistance allowing fabrication of complex geometry structural components, significantly reducing the costs and number…
The following proposal deals with the development and numerical implementation of a damage model formulation for the estimation of static and fatigue failures of bonded joints in composite material structures for aeronautic applications. The constitutive model is implemented on Abaqus finite element software through a Fortran VUMAT subroutine. The verification of the proposed approach is …
