Report on Designs of Airbus A380 Airbus A380 is commonly known as the jumbo aircraft as its capacity is up to 850 persons which weight almost 560 tons. As the maximum length of wingspan which is internationally recognize and can accommodate in most international airport is 80m‚ so A380 need to gain maximum lift with a length limit of only 80m. In order to overcome this limitation‚ the engineers observed the wings of eagle for some time and they found out that the end of the wing is folded slightly

Composite Materials A composite is a combination of two or more materials bonded together to gain some overall necessary goods. Types of composite include: laminated materials fibre composites particle composites. A laminate contains thin pieces of material fused together. Common examples are plywood and car windscreens. Wood is durable when exposed to a ductile force equivalent to its grain‚ but if the strength is across the particle it splits simply. A windscreen is made in a parallel way; two

Loft Insulation Research Loft insulation is an effective way to save energy and money in a home. A well insulated house keeps warmth indoors and not letting heat escape. By insulating a loft it will help to heat the home more efficiently. Using less energy reduces carbon dioxide emissions (CO2): which is one of the biggest causes of climate change. Another advantage is that people will also save money on their bills too. [1] Glass fibre or other loft insulation materials are laid across the loft

HIGH TECHNOLOGY FIBRES FOR TECHNICAL TEXTILES 1 INTRODUCTION Human life is surrounded by hundreds of textile fibres either in the form of clothes‚ interior textiles or in the form of high performance technical textiles made of conventional or high technology fibres for various applications. A textile fibre is usually defined as a flexible‚ macroscopically homogenous cylindrical body mainly with circular cross- section having a high ratio of length to diameter (typically 100-3000: 1). Textile
