IATA launched the NDC program in 2012. NDC Standard is an XML-based data transmission standard. It aims to transition from the current flight distribution model to an airline retailing distribution model. Now, airlines are leveraging NDC to gain more direct control over distribution. NDC adoption will also impact the way airlines are contracting with corporations.

​While commercial aircraft are becoming wider and longer, airport operators struggle for accommodating them at their existing facilities. Indeed, they were often initially designed for the previous generations of airliners (e.g. Boeing 747-100). Join us for an update on the newest aircraft types and their challenges, on the applicable regulatory requirements, and on the flexibility offered by the standards and regulations.

Modern trends in the development of aircraft and defense vehicles, such as increased power density, miniaturization, lightweighting, advanced materials and environmental sustainability are driving the need for Pervasive Engineering Simulation. Upfront digital exploration and building of digital twins require a comprehensive simulation platform that enables the modeling of complex physical and physics-based interaction of systems. Robust, fast, scalable and versatile workflows for multiphysics simulations offer tremendous value to companies in their product development and operation cycles. This on-demand webinar presents the ANSYS multiphysics solution specifically for the A&D engineer. We will highlight how the ANSYS solution works and showcase fluid-structure interaction (FSI) case studies and examples from the A&D industry.

When designing a new aircraft configuration, predicting the aerodynamic and aeroacoustic performance early in the program is important. Numerical procedures such as Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) can help addressing this challenge. However, wind tunnel testing is necessary to validate these predictions for single aircraft components as well as the overall configuration. Testing the aircraft configuration on a scaled model can bring additional engineering insights long before the aircraft can actually fly.
