This paper presents an optimisation process of reducing the structural weight of the supersonic wing by constraining the structural durability due to limit cycle oscillation. The application of composite material in aeroelasticity contributes to the modification of the expected aeroelastic failure on flutter speed. The composite material such that

This paper proposes a parametric mechanics study in determining the relationship between the parameters of the aerospace structure during a bird strike impact. A commercial software of LS-Dyna is used to compute the numerical modelling demonstrated in this research. Technically, an idealised bird is modelled as a cylindrical shape with hemispherica
