2. INTRODUCTION & SCOPE INTROUCTION : This project explores the integration of Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) into Fiber Metal Laminates (FMLs) to design advanced lightweight aircraft wing structures. It aims to enhance mechanical properties and improve overall aircraft efficiency and sustainability . CNT Properties : Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) are cylindrical structures made of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice. High tensile strength and stiffness. Lightweight and flexible. FML Composition : Layers of metal combined with fiber-reinforced polymers. Advantages of CNT Reinforcement : Enhanced mechanical properties (strength, durability). Improved fatigue resistance and impact performance. Design Implications : Enables lighter wing structures. Capable of withstanding greater loads and stresses. Impact on Aerospace : Contributes to more efficient and sustainable aircraft designs. Supports advancements in aerospace engineering.
