This M.Sc. thesis built upon the 'Multi-Disciplinary Design, Analysis and Optimization of Aerospace Vehicles Project (MDO-project)'. The main objectives of the thesis were to use MSC/NASTRAN to perform static aeroelastic analysis on a FE-model of an aircraft and to create facilities within the MDO-software capable of handling the results from theses analysis. The FE-model used for the static aeroelastic analysis was generated by the MDO-software. This FE-model incorpoated a simple aerodynamic model representing wing and tailplane. The MDO-software does not generate the fuselage aerodynamic model so this was added manually. The results from the static aeroelastic analysis consisted of aerodynamic pressures, forces, and moments acting on the aerodynamic models during specific flight conditions. These results are written to a special output file by MSC/NASTRAN.
