Airbus A350 Ultimate Load Wing Stress Test

#Wing#Stress#static A350 XWB plane’s wings are put under stress tests, proving they are incredibly unlikely to ever snap in two. These modern aircraft wings, which are often made of aluminum, are designed to deliver the best aerodynamic performance, while being exceptionally strong and light. This means they are super flexible, which is necessary when taking off as the wings provide lift, and make for a smooth flight in strong gusts of wind, or dreaded turbulence. The design of the flexible wings is inspired by nature. ‘If you see a bird fly and it is in turbulent air, its wings bend in both directions upwards and downwards as the bird flies in the air. In the video, the wings of the A350 are subjected to ‘extreme’ static ground testing in a vast aircraft hangar. Torturing [the plane] a lot of times. The wings are pushed to the limit by a mechanical loading device that forces them upwards and downwards, to simulate ‘critical situations’ and the 12000 sensors installed feed back any signs of weakness to engineers. In the vigorous test, the wing bends, or is displaced, by an incredible 5.2 metres showing its incredible flexibility. Airbus said it tests the wings to beyond the maximum forces that an aircraft may possibly experience in its life, which includes scenarios such as turbulence and hard landings. The wings are tested to destruction, they’re designed to find out all the problems that could develop in flight. Subscribe to Discover more clips: https://www.youtube.com/supercharge7?...
