Abstract

Design and manufacturing of a curved stiffened panel has been carried out within WP135 in SARISTU Integration Scenario IS13. The aim of this fuselage panel is the integration and validation of electrical structure network (ESN) technologies developed within Application Scenario AS10. The assembled panel includes premanufactured braided frames with cocured metallic strips aimed at improving electrical performance, impact detectability and damage tolerance. The panel will be subjected to electrical testing to verify the ESN solution, with additional frames used for impact testing and evaluation.
