Abstract
In this presentation, we will concentrate on typical Ground Static Test (GST) and Finite Element (FE) software comparisons. It is necessary to note, that standard GST are obligatory for any new aircraft configuration. We can mention here the investigations of the AeroTAXI TM , a small aircraft configuration, using PRODERA ® equipment. A Finite Element Model (FEM) of the AeroTAXI TM has been developed in PATRAN/NASTRAN ® , partly from a previous ANSYS ® model. FEM can be used to investigate potential structural modifications or changes with realistic component corrections. Model validation should be part of every modern engineering analysis and quality assurance procedure.
