Sharma, S.Joladarashi, S.2026-02-082025Springer Proceedings in Materials, 2025, Vol.74, , p. 251-26426623161https://doi.org/10.1016/j.conbuildmat.2026.145283https://idr.nitk.ac.in/handle/123456789/33477The aviation sector is working to make airplanes lighter to conserve fuel and eventually reduce overall expenses. This study presents the efforts made to decrease the weight of pylons through material composition changes. This study uses metal matrix composites instead of titanium alloy, which is often employed, to reduce weight while maintaining the structure's ideal strength. Modeling uses Dassault Systèmes products like SolidWorks®, and Abaqus®, software. Commercially accessible analytic products like Abaqus® and Ansys® software were used for the analysis. For modeling and analysis, the dimensions of the pylons and the load data are obtained from available literature sources. The model's fatigue life and modal frequency data were examined. The results were compared with accessible data from the literature and quantitatively examined for fatigue life and critical frequency. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2025.AerospaceMetal matrix compositeModal analysisPylonTopology optimization
