摘要:
Composite sections for aircraft fuselages and other structures, and methods and systems for manufacturing such sections, are disclosed herein. A method for manufacturing a shell structure in accordance with one embodiment of the invention includes applying composite material to an interior mold surface of a tool to form a skin extending 360 degrees around an axis. The method can further include positioning a plurality of stiffeners on an inner surface of the skin. After the stiffeners have been positioned, a vacuum bag can be installed over the stiffeners and evacuated to press the stiffeners and the skin outwardly against the interior mold surface of the tool. Next, the skin/stiffener combination can be cocured to bond the stiffeners to the skin and harden the shell structure.

Embodiments of methods and apparatus for providing a double shear joint for bonding in structural applications are disclosed. In one embodiment, a bonded composite joint includes a base having a foot configured to couple to a member, the base including a flange extending outward from the foot. The joint further includes a panel having a core configured between opposing skins, the skins having inner walls proximate the core, the skins extending outward beyond the core on at least one end of the panel to define a recess between the skins, the recess configured to receive the flange. A bonding agent is used to couple the flange to the inner walls of the panel.
