New Wing and Aircraft Systems Design and Integration for Turboprop Regional Aircraft

 

Design, manufacturing and qualification for flight adapted in particular for the specific requirements of a new wing for an aircraft of the size of the regional turboprop and integration of equipment and systems based on novel technologies or using novel integration ways oriented to the more electrical high lift wing configuration aircraft. Special emphasis is put on structure embedded systems. In particular: specific and adapted new flight controls system for morphing wings including specific functions for load alleviation and high lift design characteristics with EMAs supplied at 270 VDC. New conformal, aerodynamically and structurally integrated SATCOM antenna research, new design landing gear electrical systems with health monitoring and semi active shock absorption based in magneto-rheological fluids and new technologies ice protection systems based on two-phase heat transfer devices and on electrical induction on CFRP laminate surfaces.
