Aircraft Landing Gear Design & Development
Landing gear is one of the critical subsystems of an aircraft. The need to design landing gear with minimum weight, minimum volume, high performance, improved life, and reduced life cycle cost have posed many challenges to landing gear designers and practitioners. Further, it is essential to reduce the landing gear design and development cycle time while meeting all the regulatory and safety re...
متن کاملPassive Landing Gear using Coupled Mechanical Design
The ability of UAV’s (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) to land on unknown and uneven terrain is an important area of research, particularly for applications such as field surveillance. This paper presents a novel solution to this problem using mechanical design, with a legged landing gear design that provides both suspension and stability on uneven terrain. The key features of this design are differen...
متن کاملAeroacoustic Analysis of a Simplified Landing Gear
A hybrid approach is used to investigate the noise generated by a simplified landing gear without small scale parts such as hydraulic lines and fasteners. The Ffowcs Williams and Hawkings equation is used to predict the noise at far-field observer locations from flow data provided by an unsteady computational fluid dynamics calculation. A simulation with 13 million grid points has been complete...
متن کاملVisual perception of touchdown point during simulated landing.
Experiments examined the accuracy of visual touchdown point perception during oblique descents (1.5 degrees -15 degrees ) toward a ground plane consisting of (a) randomly positioned dots, (b) a runway outline, or (c) a grid. Participants judged whether the perceived touchdown point was above or below a probe that appeared at a random position following each display. Although judgments were unac...
متن کاملThe NASA Landing Gear Test Airplane
A tire and landing gear test facility has been developed and incorporated into a Convair 990 aircraft. The system can simulate tire vertical load profiles to 250,000 lb, sideslip angles to 15 degrees, and wheel braking on actual runways. Onboard computers control the preprogrammed test profiles through a feedback loop and also record three axis loads, tire slip angle, and tire condition. The ai...
