Abstract
For the investigation of elastic bending of the landing gear shock absorber of an aircraft under dynamic loads upon landing and subsequent braking during roll out, an MBS-based model of the landing gear is introduced. To separate effects of the elastic bending of the main landing gear the fuselage is considered rigid. After performing a flare with subsequent landing, the aircraft is stopped by means of an antiskid system. For comparison, an analytical-numerical study of a finite-element model of the main landing gear shock strut components is done for simple static and dynamic loads considering Bernoulli's hypothesis. Simulation of a rough-landing manoeuvre reveals that vibrations due to the elastic properties of the shock absorber not only increase loads on the components but significantly affect the braking process as well.
