Multifidelity Design of Structurally Embedded Waveguides

What is it about?

Standard multifunctional antenna designs cannot support the loads required by most aircraft. We have introduced an initial gap between the antenna and its supporting material to allow these designs to now support these loads, and have derived a simplified method for analyzing and design these concepts without the need for overly complex modelling software. Additionally, we have also developed a curve fit to predict the buckling of a larger panel, based upon the dimensions of a smaller constituent part, which can be easily analyzed and optimized.
