Analysis of buckling and structural optimization of low-pressure turbine casing for a civil airplane engine
The principal aim of this work is the optimization of the casing geometry in order to reduce the structural weight, increasing the resistance to the buckling collapse. We will use the FEM model choosing opportunely some geometric parameters, to define the design--space of possible geometric cross-section shapes. We operate the optimization under the worst load case chosen between the estimated work conditions.
