SIMULAND - A CODE TO ANALYZE DYNAMIC EFFECTS DURING LANDING
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2010, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
The landing gear of an aircraft is part of the aircraft structure. It is the most critical part of the flight mission and also the component that will likely cause the most problems in the aircraft design. The landing gear design combines the best in mechanical, structural and hydraulic design. The designed landing gear should be able to meet the specifications and requirements imposed by the CS23. SIMULAND-01 is a program intended to analyze a reduced model (4-30 DoF) of the aircraft under transient dynamic loads during the landing phase (touchdown).

On the design of squeeze film dampers operating within the limits of the Reynolds theory
Squeeze film dampers (SFD) are used to control the shaft dynamics in rotating machinery; SFD are essentially thin oil films installed around the ball bearing housing (or even ball bearings outer races) to lower the stiff...
Advanced Trailing Edge Blowing Concepts for Fan Noise Control
This study documents trailing edge blowing research performed to reduce rotor / stator interaction noise in turbofan engines. The existing technique of filling every velocity deficit requires a large amount of air and is...
The rotational velocities evaluation for the engine mounts gyroscopic loads
The default values for the maximum pitch and yaw speeds from CS 23.371, seem to be too conservative that would result in overstressing of the structure.A simplified dynamic simulation is proposed to evaluate more confide...
Twisted Contact Structures in Turbulent Flows
The “hairpin” vortical structure initiated from a conceptual model of Theodorsen refers to a Ω-shaped vortex with two streamwise-oriented legs connected via a raised spanwise-oriented arch. Both computational and experim...
GNSS Navigation Threats Management on-Board of Aircraft
This paper proposes low-complexity measures to be deployed on most aircraft to enable the management of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) interference, and in particularly of jamming and spoofing threats, in ord...
