AE3501- Aircraft Structures - II Syllabus Regulation 2021 Anna University

Regulation 2021, Anna University Subject code – AE3501 deals with B.E Aeronautical Engineering 3rd year semester V Aircraft Structures – II Syllabus. To prepare for challenging subjects in the field of Aeronautics need a detailed syllabus and preparation strategies. In this article, we discuss the Aircraft Structures – II syllabus.

We intend to provide every topic of the syllabus and content required for academic performance, along with reference books. In this article, AE3501 – Aircraft Structures – II Syllabus, you will be guided to get an idea of each topic of the syllabus and you can make your preparation strategy, and notes by filtering difficult topics from the different subjects. Then you can concentrate on the topic where you need to focus more. We included all the topics regarding the Aeronautical syllabus. We hope this information is useful to you. Don’t forget to share it with your friends and classmates.

If you want to know more about the syllabus of B.E Computer Science and Engineering connected to an affiliated institution’s under four-year undergraduate degree programme. We provide you with a detailed Year-wise, semester-wise, and Subject-wise syllabus in the following link B.E Aeronautical Engineering Syllabus Anna University, Regulation 2021.

Aim Of Concept:

  1. To familiarise the student, the generalized theory of pure bending and work out problems in the calculation of bending stress involving different methods.
  2. To gain knowledge in the concept of shear flow in thin-walled sections.
  3. To carry out shear flow analysis involving different types of sections.
  4. To Impart theoretical knowledge on the behaviour of thin plates and thin-walled columns.
  5. To carry out basic stress analysis procedures involving aircraft structural components.

AE3501- Aircraft Structures – II Syllabus

Unit III: Shear Flow In Closed Sections

Shear flow due to bending and torsion in single-cell and multi-cell structures, the shear center of symmetric and unsymmetrical closed sections, effect of structural idealization, shear flow in a tapered beam, stress analysis of thin-webbed beams using Wagner’s theory.

Unit IV: Buckling Of Plates

Behaviour of a rectangular plate under compression, governing equation for plate buckling, buckling analysis of sheets and stiffened panel under compression, concept of the effective sheet width, buckling due to shear and combined loading, crippling.
