Analysis of Coordinated Steering Performance in Multi‑wheel Landing Gears

Transactions of Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics
During aircraft ground steering， the nose landing gear （NLG） tires of large transport aircraft often experience excessive lateral loads， leading to sideslip. This compromises steering safety and accelerates tire wear.

Lack of capture‐induced mortality of neonates associated with variation in handling protocols

Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 50, Issue 1, March 2026.
We found that handling metrics (e.g., handling time, number of collectors, and age at capture) had limited or no influence on the survival of neonatal mule deer, desert bighorn sheep, and Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep within the first few days of life. Furthermore, we found that handled mule deer and Rocky Mountain bighorn neonates were recruited at a ...

Length‐Based Assessment of the Seven Most Commonly Caught Coral Reef Fish Species to Support Improve Management of Small‐Scale Fisheries in Southwest Madagascar

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The status of most fish stocks in Madagascar remains poorly documented. Given their importance for food security and livelihoods, it is necessary to define management measures with reliable data. This study applied a length‐based Bayesian biomass (LBB) estimation method for analysing the fisheries' representative length‐frequency data of seven

A Bifurcation Study of a Dynamic Model of a Nose Landing Gear Mechanism Subjected to External Disturbances [PDF]

, 2015
This paper presents a new modelling approach for the analysis of landing gear mechanisms. By replacing the mechanism's rotational joints with equivalent high-stiffness elastic joints, numerical continuation methods can be applied directly to dynamic ...

When property becomes rent

American Ethnologist, Volume 53, Issue 1, Page 45-56, February 2026.
Abstract For millions of working‐class Mexicans, property has turned into rent. This transformation has fundamentally dislocated social reproduction in Mexico by eroding households’ ability to envision themselves as holders of patrimony and as lasting social formations. To understand how and to what effect property turned into rent, we must look to the

Effects of design parameters on the centering performance of nose landing gear for a certain aircraft

Advances in Mechanical Engineering
The centering mechanism of the nose landing gear is crucial for aircraft operational safety, particularly during the takeoff and landing processes. To address the failure of the return function observed in a certain aircraft, this paper establishes a ...

LCA‐based evaluation of greenhouse gas reduction potentials of carbon/carbon wheel brakes for medium‐haul aircraft

International Journal of Applied Ceramic Technology, Volume 23, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Air transport is expected to substantially grow in the next decades, presenting a significant challenge for the aviation industry to reconcile this growth with the need to mitigate climate change by reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. A viable strategy for diminishing aviation emissions involves reducing aircraft fuel consumption, which ...

Community science datasets identify the spatial occurrence and hotspots of flapper skate (Dipturus intermedius)

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 108, Issue 2, Page 446-457, February 2026.
Abstract The flapper skate, Dipturus intermedius (Parnell, 1837), is a large‐bodied, slow‐growing and late‐maturing, Critically Endangered elasmobranch with a constrained population distribution. Here, we use two longitudinal community science datasets to investigate the occurrence of flapper skates in Irish waters. The two datasets are as follows: the

Artificial Runway Design for Shimmy Testing on Nose Landing Gear

, 2023
This report proposes a novel design for general experimentation of shimmy on the nose landing gear of aircraft. Shimmy is known to cause excessive wear on the landing gear, discomfort to occupants, and potential safety hazards.
