Abstract

Despite the problems currently caused by the pandemic, accidents and sanctions, it is planned to increase the production of structures made of polymer composite materials (PCM) in the aircraft industry. Widespread use of PCM in aircraft structures in 2025–2035. will be accompanied by increased introduction of automated processes, mathematical modeling at the stages of design, manufacture and life cycle of such structures, the use of combinations of thermoplastic and thermosetting matrices and metal elements in their production, as well as the transition to autoclave-free technologies.
