In this work, a scheme of representation for aircraft structural concepts is identified. Based on this scheme, a parametric-associative geometrical modelling of the aeronautic structure, consisting in a quad-mapped mesh, is proposed. The mesh generation is based on a hierarchical scheme ensuring the one-to-one correspondence between mesh elements belonging to adjacent primitives. The automatic propagation of modifications is efficiently implemented according to well-defined schemes of dependence thanks to which the modifications involve only the concerned instances. This scheme is implemented in an original software, called MeshFEM and developed using C++, Matlab and the VTK library for 3D graphic visualisation.

Abstract
In this work, a scheme of representation for aircraft structural concepts is identified. Based on this scheme, a parametric-associative geometrical modelling of the aeronautic structure, consisting in a quad-mapped mesh, is proposed. The mesh generation is based on a hierarchical scheme ensuring the one-to-one correspondence between mesh elements belonging to adjacent primitives. The automatic propagation of modifications is efficiently implemented according to well-defined schemes of dependence thanks to which the modifications involve only the concerned instances. This scheme is implemented in an original software, called MeshFEM and developed using C++, Matlab and the VTK library for 3D graphic visualisation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
