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...

Many patents have suggested that spinning the aircraft wheel before touchdown would lessen tyre wear as indicated by landing smoke and rubber deposites on the runway caused by skidding wheel at the point of impact. In this paper, the required torque to spin the aircraft wheel at approach speed has been calculated using ANSYS Workbench CFX, which is used to determine the wheel aerodynamic forces...

Vehicles, houses, small buildings 2-3m but in the longer term, residual errors and biases integrate up into unacceptably large position errors. Under these conditions, millimetre wave radar can be applied in a number of ways to improve the navigation accuracy. It can be used as a Doppler sensor to improve the velocity estimation accuracy by measuring the ground speed, or it can be used to produ...

This paper presents a feasibility study of a vision-based autonomous approach and landing for an aircraft using a direct visual tracking method. Auto-landing systems based on the Instrument Landing System (ILS) have already proven their importance through decades but general aviation stills without cost-effective solutions for such conditions. However, vision-based systems have shown to have th...

This article presents a methodology to determine the risk of aircrafts lateral runway excursion during landing via mathematical modeling. In addition, is demonstrated by means detailed calculation value aircraft Airbus A310-200, in view maximum weight and appropriate range velocities according International Civil Aviation Organization specification. Obviously, demonstrates that developed math s...

This paper addresses the issue of developing weatherimpacted routes for the Final Approach Spacing Tool (FAST). FAST relies on adaptation data that includes nominal terminal area routes and degrees of freedom to generate optimum landing sequences and runway assignments. However, during adverse weather some adapted routes may become unavailable due to the presence of hazardous weather. If FAST c...

The runway is equipped with visual aids that provide the aircraft's direction and angle of inclination must be followed for a safe landing, also served by ILS (Instrument Landing System). procedure providing OJT service units at Sultan Syarif Kasim II Airport Pekanbaru Electrical Mechanical Facility (EMF) to support ongoing operational activities. Units. one work which has duties responsibiliti...
