One of the most important components an aircraft is landing gear. In today`s modern gears, mostly oleo-pneumatic shock struts are used. Analytically, gear can be modeled as a mass-spring-damper system. The model used in study included such strut, tire and wheel. Furthermore, tapered metering pin was added to order control area orifice by which hydraulic oil flows during act impact force. Landin...

Many fatal accidents due to falls from heights have occurred at construction sites not only in Japan but also in other countries. This study aims to determine the fall prevention performance of two types of safety belts: a body belt1), which has been used for more than 40 yr in the Japanese construction industry as a general type of safety equipment for fall accident prevention, and a full harn...

Lyα absorber correlations contain information about the underlying density distribution associated with a particular class of absorbers. As such, they provide an opportunity to independently measure the “bias” of the Lyman alpha forest, i.e. the relationship between H I column density and underlying dark matter density. In these proceedings we use hydrodynamic simulations to investigate whether...
