Calculation of strength, rigidity, and stability of the aircraft fuselage frame made of composite materials

Carbon-carbon composite materials (CCCM) are characterized by high heat resistance and thermostability for which they, in most of their physical and mechanical characteristics, can be attributed to the most promising materials. Approximately 81% of all carbon-carbon composite materials are used for the manufacture of brake rotors for aircraft, 18% – in space rocket technology, and only 1% – for all other areas of application. This study discusses calculations of the strength, rigidity, and stability of a frame made of carbon-carbon composite materials. It is known that the strength of CCCM based on high-strength carbon fibers is higher than the strength of a composite material based on high-modulus carbon fibers obtained at various processing temperatures. The stress-strain behaviour (SSB) of the material is carried out. Among the special properties of CCCM are low porosity, low coefficient of thermal expansion, maintaining a stable structure and properties, as well as product dimensions.
