The Dynamic Characteristics of a non-linear main landing gear system of an aircraft during landing [PDF]
The landing gear plays a very important role during landing by absorbing the high impact energy of the aircraft. The main landing gear absorbs the bulk of the load to reduce the load experienced by both the aircraft fuselage and the nose landing gear. In this paper, a mathematical approach is used to extract the dynamic characteristics of the system. A

Inerter-Based Configurations for Main-Landing-Gear Shimmy Suppression [PDF]
The work reported in this paper concentrates on the possibility of suppressing shimmy oscillations of landing gear more effectively using a linear passive suppression device incorporating inerter. The inerter is a one-port mechanical device with the property that the applied force is proportional to the relative acceleration between its terminals.

A Rational Numerical Method for Simulation of Drop-Impact Dynamics of Oleo-Pneumatic Landing Gear
Oleo-pneumatic landing gear is a complex mechanical system conceived to efficiently absorb and dissipate an aircraft’s kinetic energy at touchdown, thus reducing the impact load and acceleration transmitted to the airframe.

Optimisation of shimmy suppression device in an aircraft main landing gear [PDF]
In earlier publications of landing gear shimmy analysis, efforts have concentrated on predicting the onset of shimmy instability and investigating how to stabilise shimmy-prone landing gears. Less attention has been given to the improvements of shimmy performance for a gear that is free from dynamic instability.
