Abstract

The article discusses several advances in the development of aerospace structures in the U.S. in 2008. These include the creation of a prototype of an Air Force cargo plane by Lockheed Martin and a research by Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University researchers on the approaches to offset structural disadvantages of noncircular cylindrical shell geometries. The National Aeronautics & Space Administration (NASA) Glenn has optimized a simulated composite cantilever morphing structure.
