This paper deals with the study and comparison of passive and active landing gear system of  the aircraft and dynamic responses due to runway irregularities while the aircraft is taxying. The dynamic load and vibration caused by the unevenness of runway will result in airframe fatigue, discomfort of passengers and the reduction of the pilot’s ability to control the aircraft. One of the objectiv...

This paper describes third aircraft model with 2 degrees of freedom. The aim of this study is to develop a mathematical model for investigation of adoptable landing gear vibration behavior and to design Proportional Integration Derivative (PID) classical techniques for control of active hydraulic nonlinear actuator. The parameters of controller and suspension system are adjusted according to be...

In recent years a clear trend has developed in the aerospace industry towards the procurement of integrated systems from major suppliers (ref. 1). In this process, Messier-Dowty became a provider of integrated landing gear systems who is responsible for supplying a certifiable landing gear system and providing all the system level performance analysis. The aircraft landing gear system retractio...

Landing impact and runway unevenness have proximate consequence on performance of landing gear system and conduce to discomfort of passengers and reduction of the pilot’s capability to control aircraft. Finally, vibrations caused by them result in structure fatigue. Fuzzy logic controller is used frequently in different applications because of simplicity in design and implementation. In the pre...

Simulation and the resulting prediction of the dynamic behavior of an aircraft and its landing gear system during ground maneuvers is an essential part in the design process. A realistic estimation of unwanted oscillations, such as gear walk and shimmy, for the landing gear and whole aircraft can be readily obtained with an MBS-model. It is then possible to adjust the model for changes in the s...

Preliminary note Numerical simulation procedures for landing dynamics of large transport aircraft are briefly presented. Developed numerical procedures allow for determination of dynamic response of landing aircraft for different flight and touch-down parameters. A non-linear dynamic model of landing aircraft, which serves as a basis for computational procedures, is synthesised by modelling of ...

In the context of aircraft, shimmy is an oscillatory phenomenon of the landing gear mainly due to the tire and the landing gear structural dynamics. This phenomenon which can result in severe damage to the landing gear must be damped. This paper presents a new nose landing gear model including an actuator model and a simple tire/road interface description approximating the Pacejka model to allo...

Integrated Vehicle Health Management (IVHM) is one of the few technologies that will help in reducing both maintenance and operational costs, while improving the overall safety of an aircraft. It also helps in moving away from conservative design philosophies. Hence IVHM is increasingly being adopted in various aircraft programs. IVHM requires a multi-disciplinary approach bringing together the...

This research explains airplane model with two vertical vibrations for airframe and landing gear system. The purpose of this work is to advance vibrational model for study of adjustable vibration absorber and to plan Proportional-Integration-Derivative approach for adapting semi active control force. The coefficients of this method are modified as stated by Bee multiobjective optimization using...

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...
