Interesting Antonov Structural Design Article

[Hood]

I came across this interesting article written partly to mark Antonov's 100th birthday and the 60th anniversary of the OKB. Discusses a selection of structural design elements over the years.

'Resolving Applied-Mechanics Problems in Creating Antonov Transport Aircraft' by D.S. Kiva in International Applied Mechanics, Vol.42, No.10, 2006
