A Fanciful Look at Air Carrier Operations in the Year 2050

Journal of Aviation/Aerospace Education & Research, 2002
Captain Lance Boyle smiled as he felt the smooth rippling thunk of the landing gear tires meeting the runway. Now that was how aircraft should land, not this vertical takeoff and landing nonsense employed by the newest "planes," still called that even ...

Kaji Eksperimental Respon Percepatan Sistem Nose Landing Gear pada Pesawat Tanpa Awak Menggunakan Peredam Udara [PDF]

, 2020
Pesawat tanpa awak akan mengalami getaran ketika landing. Jika tingkat getaran yang diterima sangat tinggi dengan waktu yang lama, maka pesawat tanpa awak dan komponen elektrikalnya dapat mengalami kerusakan. Sistem yang mampu mengurangi getaran tersebut

Anti‐Astrotropik — Outer space, technology and resistance in the tropics

Singapore Journal of Tropical Geography, Volume 47, Issue 2, Page 289-316, May 2026.
This paper traces an intellectual and geographical arc of thinking about outer space in the tropics, connecting Peter Redfield's Space in the Tropics: From Convicts to Rockets in French Guiana (2000), Sean T. Mitchell's Constellations of Inequality: Space, Race, and Utopia in Brazil (2017) and Asif Siddiqi's Cosmic Fragments: Dislocation and Discontent

Aircraft Nose Landing Gear Shimmy with Nonlinear Tyre Models

International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos
In this study, an application of a nonlinear tire model is considered in the analysis of aircraft nose landing gear shimmy. An aircraft single-wheel nose landing gear system is used to analyze the shimmy stability, where the tire model is designed to account the nonlinear relaxation length by the two-degree-of-freedom model, as well as the nonlinearity

Evaluating Patterns in Fishing Gear Removal From Incidentally Captured Leatherback and Loggerhead Sea Turtles in the US Atlantic Pelagic Longline Fishery

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Incidental capture of imperilled sea turtles by longline fisheries is a conservation concern; thus, solutions to reduce the severity of resulting injuries and mortality are a priority. Interaction characteristics, handling methods and the amount and location of gear remaining on bycaught turtles affect the degree of injury and influence ...

Dynamic analysis of nose landing gear shimmy considering hydraulic damping characteristics

Xibei Gongye Daxue Xuebao
Large and medium-sized aircraft widely employ nose wheel hydraulic steering systems to achieve steering control and shimmy suppression. The damping characteristic of the steering system is the core factor for effective shimmy control of the nose landing ...

Uncertainty Quantification in Planning Aircraft Ground Movement Operations With Towbarless Robotic Tractors

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, Volume 36, Issue 5, Page 2542-2556, 25 March 2026.
ABSTRACT This article addresses the problem of quantifying the uncertainty in planning aircraft ground movement operations using towbarless robotic tractors taking into account the inherent uncertainties of the problem, specifically, the uncertainties in the weight of the aircraft and in the rolling resistance of the wheels of the main landing gear ...

A comprehensive embryonic staging series of the turtle Trachemys scripta

Developmental Dynamics, Volume 255, Issue 3, Page 260-320, March 2026.
Abstract Background Turtles hold a unique place in vertebrate evolutionary history, making them critical assets in embryology research. Yet, they remain understudied as potential model organisms in the field. Here, to support experimental manipulations with turtle embryos, we have created a complete normal table of development for comprehensive ...

Friction Shock Absorbers and Reverse Thrust for Fast Multirotor Landing on High‐Speed Vehicles

Journal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 2, Page 1068-1090, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Typical landing gears of small uninhabited aerial vehicles (UAV) limit their capability to land on vehicles moving at more than 20–50 km/h due to high drag forces, high pitch angles and potentially high relative horizontal velocities. To enable landing at higher speeds, a combination of lightweight friction shock absorbers and reverse thrust ...
