Airworthiness Compliance Verification of Bird Strike on Civil Aircraft Windshield Frame

Abstract

With the frequent occurrence of bird strikes, minimizing the impact damage effect of birdstrike on flight always is the goal of airworthiness certification. As a large windward component in front of the aircraft, the windshield, and frame have more probability to be suffered from birdstrike. This paper introduces the common connection forms of the windshield frame structure of civil aircraft, and through the interpretation of the airworthiness requirements related to windshield in CCAR-25, puts forward the process and method of compliance verification of windshield frame birdstrike. Based on the SPH method, the dynamic analysis of bird impact on windshield window frame is carried out, the test is carried out to verify that the analysis method is reasonable and conservative, and the results show that the bird impact performance of the windshield frame structure meets the airworthiness requirements.
