An approach to show the potential to improve aircraft fuselages with the application of a multi-disciplinary design philosophy is discussed. It is found that aluminum is the common metal being used in all the aircraft for the design purposes. This evolution of the aluminum airplane structure has led to the current over-optimized stiffened skin structure. It is also found that both the combination of composite materials with the sandwich concept is very attractive and both thermosets and thermoplastic polymers can be applied for airplanes.
