Design and analysis of joints for structural frame and mounting plate of a wing box test stand / Mohd Safwan Zulkefley

Wing box is an essential part of an aircraft. The wing box includes the structural members of the wing such as spars, ribs, braces, bars, struts etc. and is enclosed by the upper and lower skins of the wing. Generally the roots of the front and the rear spars are connected to the fuselage. The spars...
