fastga.models.weight.mass_breakdown.a_airframe.wing_components.compute_upper_flange module

Computes the mass of the upper spar cap/flange based on the model presented by Raquel ALONSO in her MAE research project report.

class fastga.models.weight.mass_breakdown.a_airframe.wing_components.compute_upper_flange.ComputeUpperFlange(**kwargs)

Bases: openmdao.core.explicitcomponent.ExplicitComponent

Store some bound methods so we can detect runtime overrides.

initialize()

Perform any one-time initialization run at instantiation.

setup()

Declare inputs and outputs.

Available attributes:

name pathname comm options

compute(inputs, outputs, discrete_inputs=None, discrete_outputs=None)

Component that computes the wing web mass necessary to react to the given linear force vector, according to the methodology developed by Raquel Alonso Castilla.
