What is it about?
This study investigates the effects of bird strike on the wing leading edge of a trainer aircraft in accordance with EASA CS-23 standards, and compares various options for the design of energy-absorbing support structures. Also, we propose the use of NPR (negative Poisson's ratio) structures as wing leading edge support structures for the first time in the literature, to the best of our knowledge.
