Semi-Active Control for a Helicopter with Multiple Landing Gears Equipped with Magnetorheological Dampers

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Due to their extensive use in various applications, helicopters need to be able to land in a variety of conditions. Typically, a helicopter landing gear system with skids or passive wheel-dampers is designed based on only one critical touchdown condition.

Influence of Variable Side-Stay Geometry on the Shimmy Dynamics of an Aircraft Dual-Wheel Main Landing Gear [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Commercial aircraft are designed to fly but also need to operate safely and efficiently as vehicles on the ground. During taxiing, take-off, and landing the landing gear must operate reliably over a wide range of forward velocities and vertical loads ...

A Numerical Study of the Wind Speed Effect on the Flow and Acoustic Characteristics of the Minor Cavity Structures in a Two-Wheel Landing Gear

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
The landing gear is widely concerned as the main noise source of airframe noise. The flow characteristics and aerodynamic noise characteristics of the landing gear were numerically simulated based on Large Eddy Simulation and Linearized Euler Equation ...

Bifurcation analysis of nose landing gear shimmy with lateral and longitudinal bending [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We develop and study a model of an aircraft nose landing gear with torsional, lateral and longitudinal degrees of freedom. The corresponding three modes are coupled in a nonlinear fashion via the geometry of the landing gear in the presence of a nonzero ...

Effect of Joint Clearance on Landing Gear Retraction Failure

open access: yesAerospace, 2021
A simple method of investigating the effect of joint clearances on landing gear retraction failure is presented and applied to the main landing gear with a single sidestay and a hydraulic actuator.

Dynamic Fatigue Tests Of Landing Gears

open access: yesFatigue of Aircraft Structures, 2020
Landing gears are one of the main components of an aircraft. The landing gear is used not only during take-off and landing but also, in most cases, during ground manoeuvres.

Bifurcation Analysis of a Coupled Nose Landing Gear-Fuselage System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Under certain conditions during takeoff and landing, pilots may sometimes experience vibrations in the cockpit. Because the cockpit is located right above the nose landing gear, which is known to potentially be prone to self-excited vibrations at certain

A bifurcation study to guide the design of a landing gear with a combined uplock/downlock mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper discusses the insights that a bifurcation analysis can provide when designing mechanisms. A model, in the form of a set of coupled steady-state equations, can be derived to describe the mechanism.

Oleo-pneumatic Mixed Shock Absorber Landing Pressure Analysis of Landing Gear

open access: yesHangkong gongcheng jinzhan, 2020
The landing gear of an aircraft bears a large impact load during landing, which causes the internal shock absorber to withstand high oil pressure and air pressure, and the buffer performance is greatly influenced.

Optimization of a Main Landing Gear Locking Mechanism Using Bifurcation Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Aircraft, 2017
A key part of the main landing gear of a civil aircraft is its locking mechanism that holds the gear in the deployed or downlocked state.
