Abstract
Ditching is an emergency measure for landing on the water when the aircraft cannot continue to fly in an accident. In order to verify the performance of the aircraft ditching, this paper carry out a simulation study on ditching of fixed-wing aircraft on the water. First determine the simulation method, material model and constitutive equation, and then analyze the influence of the sinking speed and attitude changes on the ditching of the aircraft. The simulation method adopts arbitrary Lagrange-Euler method (ALE). The results show that as the sinking speed increases, the load will increase accordingly. As the initial attitude angle increases, the vertical acceleration gradually decreases, and the longitudinal acceleration is basically the same, the pressure acting area gradually moves backward, and the pressure area gradually decreases. It is necessary to take appropriate local strengthening measures on the dangerous region.
