Abstract
Comparison of failure initiation of five cases, including the standard and oblique α, -α, 2α and -2α riveted wing leading edge model of an eVTOL are investigated ply by ply concerning Tsai-Wu failure with this study. Net section, shear out, bolt pulling through the laminate, cleavage tension, bearing and bolt failure are the possible failure modes for the joints of mechanically fastened unidirectional composites. Investigation of the best absorbent core material to be implemented to develop the lightest composite eVTOL leading edge which can stand against bird impact.
