Investigating the piaggio avanti design using CEASIOM

• In early steps of aircraft design the unification of configuration definition is important to avoid user-input errors. Also coupling with each other can strengthen different tools with different specifications simultaneously provided that the geometry definition is transferred with minimum data loss. This is vitally useful especially when geometry data is transferred in order to perform high- fidelity analysis. This paper reports the analysis for the pitch control of a three-lifting-surface aircraft Piaggio Avanti using CEASIOM, a tool- chain software for aircraft preliminary design, with the baseline configuration coming from the conceptual design code AAA, linked by a common name-space CPACS for the means of data collaboration.
