Blended wing body airframe mass prediction [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part G: Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2001
The blended wing body (BWB) concept is one in which the payload is carried within the inner wing of the aircraft, the local aerofoil sections being deepened to accommodate it. Difficulties, both in design and mass prediction, arise when the payload requires the pressurization of the non-circular cross- sections of the blended wing region.
