Life cycle assessment and cost analysis evaluation of a helicopter's canopy production using different manufacturing processes

Life cycle assessment and cost analysis evaluation of a helicopter's canopy production using different manufacturing processes

In the present work, Life Cycle analysis (LCA) and Life cycle costing (LCC) models were developed in order to quantify the environmental footprint and cost and thus compare different manufacturing scenarios associated with the production of aeronautical structural components. To validate the models...
