AB  - Composite materials have been extensively employed in the aviation industry in recent years. The application of new materials enables significant weight savings with improved mechanical characteristics. This is also very important in the field of development of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV). In the design phases, it is necessary to perceive all the aspects that are important for the structure and consider different load cases. The relationship between weight and strength proved to be important. This means that detailed strength analyses of each structural part are indispensable. In particular, primary load-bearing structures must sustain all types of loads without fail. Failure of the structure can affect the motion of the UAV during the mission or lead to a crash and significant losses. This paper presents the research performed on the failure analysis of a composite beam of a novel UAV. During the testing phase, under an unpredictable load condition followed by a crash landing, failure of the structure occurred on a beam element. The study was performed to determine the cause of the failure of certain layers of the composite laminate, because the previous calculation showed that it met the criteria for which it was dimensioned. Based on the telemetry data and the impact load that was registered, a complementary numerical and experimental analyses were performed to determine what happened and why. Composite test specimens were extracted from the beam and subjected to standard tensile tests, in order to determine the actual mechanical characteristics of the layered material. The paper presents in detail the comparison of the results as well as the methodology used in this research.

AB  - The high level of worthiness of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), particularly in everyday life, is something that will be common thing in close future. The design solutions for UAV us subject of constant innovation, focused on the improving structure performances and weight reducing. The use of new materials. like various composites, is necessary during this process to fulfill such demanding structural design requirements. Despite the fact that such kind of composite made UAV structures are subjected to the detailed calculation procedures and experimental verifications in the design phase, the fracture and failure can occur during testing in real operation conditions. The redesign procedure is required in order to overcome the noted issues.
This paper describes failure analysis, as well as structural redesign procedure for a beam element of an unconventional UAV. The fracture analysis is based on the numerical calculations of the deformation and stress state of the element, as well as experimental investigation of material characteristics. The developed redesign solution contains modifications in material of the element, as well as the changes in the structure design of the failure zone. The Finite Element Analysis is performed and discussed for both of the element structures: original design and redesign based on the fracture analysis. The conclusions obtained by the comparison of these Finite Element Analyses show the significant structure improvements in the stress concentration zone, achieved by the proposed redesign.
