Aircraft
Landing and Handling Analysis
| |
- The loading conditions on the landing
gear of a large passenger aircraft needed
to be investigated.
- A model of the aircraft was built
and the required landing manoeuvres
simulated.
- The dynamic landing gear forces were
then obtained from the model.
- The same model was also used for aircraft
ride and handling studies given different
steering inputs and varying runway surface
profiles.

Aircraft Landing
Gear Retraction Analysis
| |
- Prior to building of a test rig and
prototype landing gear, an ADAMS model
of the mechanism was built.
- Forces or motions were applied at
the actuator locations.
- The operational mechanism forces and
motion were investigated.
