One of the most significant components of aircraft design is the wing, the wings are the main lifting surfaces that support the airplane in flight. The structures of wings must have enough strength and rigidity to ensure the safe of the aircraft. Usually, the displacements of the structures are calculated by using finite element method. But it is very difficult to select a reasonable finite element model to approximate the actual structure. In this study, two models are adopted to calculate the displacements of the wing structure. The first is a model of rod and shear plate, the second is a model of beam and shell. The disadvantages and advantages of two models are discussed. As seen from the comparison with the test date, two models proposed are both feasible to analyze the wing structure.

The objective of this study was to develop a finite-element (FE) modeling methodology for studying the etiology of a stress fracture (SF). Several variants of three-dimensional FE models of a rat hindlimb, which differed in length or stiffness of tissues, enabling the analyses of mechanical strains and stress in the tibia, were created. We compared the occurrence of SFs in an animal model to validate locations of peak strains/stresses in the FE models. Four Sprague-Dawley male rats, age ∼7 wk, were subjected to mechanical cyclic loads of 1.2 Hz and ∼6 N, which were delivered to their hindlimb for 30 min, 3 times/wk, up to 12 wk, by using a specially designed apparatus. The results showed that 1) FE modeling predicted the maximal strains/stresses (∼220,0 με and ∼29 MPa, respectively) between the mid- and proximal thirds of the tibia; 2) in a longer shin, greater and more inhomogeneous tensile strains/stresses were evident, at the same location; 3) anatomical variants in shin length influenced the strain/stress distributions to a greater extent with respect to changes in mechanical properties of tissues; and 4) bone stiffness was more dominant than muscle stiffness in affecting the strain/stress distributions. In the animal study, 35,000 loading cycles were associated with the formation of a SF. The location of the identified SF in the rat limb verified the FE model. We find the suggested model a valuable tool in studying various aspects of SFs.
