[0043] To facilitate understanding of the solutions and effects of the embodiments of the present invention, three specific application examples are given below. Those skilled in the art should understand that these examples are only for facilitating understanding of the present invention, and any specific details thereof are not intended to limit the present invention in any way.
[0044] Example 1
[0045] Figure 1 A flow chart showing the steps of a composite material truss UAV fuselage structure design method according to one embodiment of the present invention.
[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, the composite truss UAV fuselage structure design method includes:
[0047] Step 101, determining the bending moment distributed along the fuselage, and then determining the initial geometric parameters of the truss structure;
[0048] Step 102, calculating the moment of inertia and member strain based on the initial geometric parameters of the truss structure;
[0049] Step 103, calculating equivalent material parameters, and then establishing a finite element model of the truss structure;
[0050] Step 104: Establish a full-scale fuselage truss structure model and calculate the stability of a single strut;
[0051] Step 105 , calculating the overall stability of the truss based on the finite element model, and completing the truss fuselage design.
[0052] In one example, the initial geometric parameters of the truss structure include truss height, truss width, longitudinal member outer diameter, and longitudinal member inner diameter.
[0053] In one example, the moment of inertia is:
[0054]
[0055] Among them, I x is the x-direction moment of inertia, I y is the moment of inertia in the y direction.
[0056] In one example, the member strains become:
[0057]
[0058] Among them, ε zx Calculate the strain in the x-direction, ε zy is the calculated strain in the y direction, and E is the equivalent elastic modulus of the composite material.
[0059] In one example, the equivalent material parameters are:
[0060]
[0061] in, A 66 =G LT , E L 、E T is the elastic modulus in the single layer direction, G LT is the shear modulus in the single layer direction, E x 、E y is the equivalent material parameter, A is the stiffness matrix parameter, h is the rod wall thickness, μ LT 、μ TL is the Poisson's ratio of a single layer in different directions.
[0062] In one example, the beam elements and shell elements at the nodes of the full-scale fuselage truss structure model are connected using MPC elements, and the truss nodes and main load-bearing members are established through the shell elements.
[0063] In an example, the stability of a single strut is calculated using Euler's formula:
[0064]
[0065] In one example, the overall stability of the truss is calculated based on the finite element model. The completed truss fuselage design includes:
[0066] If the overall stability of the truss meets the design requirements, the truss fuselage design is completed. If not, the finite element model is re-established for iteration.
[0067] Specifically, according to the load (horizontal tail and vertical tail load) and the stiffness design requirements, the bending moment M distributed along the fuselage is calculated. x 、M y .
[0068] Figure 2 A schematic diagram of an end face of a truss fuselage structure according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown.
[0069] According to the fuselage bending moment distribution, the initial geometric parameters of the truss structure are determined by engineering calculation methods, including truss height H, truss width L, longitudinal member outer diameter D, and longitudinal member inner diameter d, such as Figure 2shown.
[0070] Calculate the moment of inertia in different directions as:
[0071]
[0072] Among them, I x is the x-direction moment of inertia, I y is the moment of inertia in the y direction.
[0073] Calculate the member strain as:
[0074]
[0075] Among them, ε zx Calculate the strain in the x-direction, ε zy is the strain calculated in the y direction, and E is the equivalent elastic modulus of the composite material. Since the allowable strain values used are equal,
[0076] ε zy =ε zx =[ε]
[0077] Where [ε] is the allowable strain value of the member, which is obtained based on tests of different material systems or strength design requirements of engineering projects.
[0078] Truss nodes are generally nodes with a certain degree of rigidity. Due to the influence of node rigidity, rod bending and axial additional force occur. The additional force needs to take into account the axial deformation of the rod. The finite element model of the truss structure is established based on the preliminary obtained rod geometric dimensions and layup.
[0079] Composite rods are simulated using beam elements (bar elements), and the equivalent material parameters are calculated based on the material and ply information. The equivalent material parameters are:

[0082] The equivalent shear modulus is
[0083] G xy =A 66 / h
[0084] The equivalent Poisson's ratio is
[0085]
[0086] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of selecting two spans of a fuselage truss according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown.
[0087] A full-scale fuselage truss structure model was established, and static and stability analysis was performed on the model. The beam elements (bar elements) and shell elements (shell elements) at the truss nodes were connected using MPC (RBE2) elements. Figure 3 As shown in the figure, shell elements are used to establish truss nodes and main load-bearing members.
[0088] Extract the beam element (bar element) force (FORCE) and calculate the stress and strain of the bar:
[0089]
[0090] The member strain and critical pressure are calculated by the beam unit force, the equivalent elastic modulus of the composite material, and the effective length of the compression rod. The effective length of the compression rod can be determined through experiments. The stability of a single compression rod is calculated using the Euler formula:
[0091]
[0092] Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a finite element model of a truss UAV fuselage structure according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown.
[0093] like Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the overall stability of the truss is obtained through the calculation of the overall finite element model, and all the calculation results are judged to see whether they meet the design requirements. If so, the truss fuselage design is completed. If not, according to the calculation results, the ply and geometric parameters are adjusted in a targeted manner, and the finite element model is re-established for iteration to finally achieve design convergence.
[0094] Ground tests on the UAV fuselage design using this method have shown that compared with traditional design methods, the application of this method has a significant weight reduction effect and the design iteration speed is increased by more than 30%.
