- This paper presents a novel method for early aircraft assembly process planning that supports the development of an installation and test sequence, taking into account both physical and functional integrations during assembly. The research was undertaken by PhD student Tao Li who was sponsored by China Scholarship Council. This highly skilled researcher has now returned to employment with AVIC in China where he is applying his developed knowledge in aircraft production. The results have also been presented to Airbus who have expressed an interest in integrating the test sequencing into their early assembly line planning.
