66 Aircraft Engineering Questions And Answers

21⟩ What are the rudder functions?

★ It is used with different applications that are involved in taking off and landing to keep aircraft straight.

★ Providing assistance that is, limited only for the aircraft to turn correctly.

★ Used in applications during spin to reduce the roll rate of the aircraft and there are some applications that provides low speeds and high angles to allow the raising of the wings.

22⟩ How important is to get the passengers switch off the mobile phones and laptops during land off? What could be the consequences?

It is very important to check if laptop and mobile phones are switched off or not, as the consequences can be bad. Because interference of air crafts communication devices and electronic devices interfere with each other and there could be chances of not proper landing.

So, it's highly recommended that all electronic and communication devices should be switched off during take off and landing.

29⟩ Tell me what is Precautionary landing?

This is used when Pilot faces a problem due to severe weather conditions, or being lost in the air space traffic or due to lack of fuel or expecting an engine trouble.

36⟩ What stress types are present in aircraft operations?

Tensile stress:

It is the stress that is setup when the force tries to pull the material apart.

Compressive stress:

It is the stress that is produced by the force that is trying to crush the material.

Shear stress:

Is the stress that results from the force that tends to cut through the material i.e. tend to put one material slide over another one.

37⟩ What safety recommendations are required while maintaining aircraft?

★ CAA (Civil aviation authority) examines the applicability of self-certification of aircraft engineering and verifies the criticality of the tasks that need to be performed on the system. They also check the system for further services without doing any functional checks.

★ Review of the system takes place to interpret the single components of the aircraft that is vital in its design.

★ Reviewing of the quality assurance system and the reporting methods take place to encourage more better designs to be provided for the use.

★ Reviewing the need to, introduce a format of job description and grades that is being provided to the engineers and managers.

★ Providing a mechanism for an independent assessment to carry out the work audit and operations can be performed smoothly.

39⟩ Tell me why is strain a major factor in aircraft engineering?

Strain is when a material is altered in shape, this happens due to the fact that the force is acting on the material. The body is strained internally as well as externally without having any differences of dimension but it just has the differences at the atomic level. It is the ratio of change in dimension over the original dimension. It is very important due to the fact that building an aircraft requires the knowledge of these factors and the formulas that are associated with it to successfully implementing the parts together.

40⟩ What modulus are involved in mechanics?

Modulus of rigidity:

This defines the relationship between the shear stress (t ) and shear strain (? ).

Bulk modulus:

This defines that if a body volume v is subjected to an increase in an external pressure then the volume will be changed by dV, this deformation will be change in volume not in shape.
