Hafizuddin Mustaffi Ainullotfi Abdul Latif, supervisor Mechanical engineering Also available in printed version The purpose for this study is to conduct structural designs and analysis for a new coreless spoiler for Airbus A320. The current spoiler uses honeycomb core as support structure, which was known to have water ingression problem. Coreless spoiler is a design concept where the core material of the original spoiler is taken over by other composite structural means, thereby removing the need for the honeycomb core. As a benchmark, the original composite spoiler was modelled using Solidworks and analysed in ABAQUS/CAE 6.9 finite element software. A number of topological models with different supporting structures replacing the honeycomb core were analysed and compared with the benchmark. The effects of each support structure on Tsai-Hill composite failure index and maximum deflection value were studied. It was found that single spar configuration performs better than a single rib configuration at dispersing the concentrated load located at the spoiler actuator base. Based from this, another new model was created, which is a combination of composite CFRP single spar and ribs. The study then focused on the analysis of this new structure, where improvements were made based from spoiler. Simulation results show that the improved layup increased the supporting capability of the proposed structure in terms of reduced Tsai-Hill index value and deflection. Furthermore, a weight reduction was achieved, with the newly proposed structure weighing in at 1.1 kg less than the original spoiler. Thus the study shows that the proposed coreless spoiler design could be used as an alternative to adequately replace the original composite Airbus A320 spoiler atiff UTM 69 p.
