Atmospheric corrosion poses a significant challenge for the components of aircraft exposed to prolonged harsh weather conditions, critically impacting the safety property of aircraft landing gear retraction mechanism (ALGRM). This paper focuses on the ALGRM of a specific aircraft type, presenting a new modeling and analysis approach to assess the influence of atmospheric corrosion on dynamic behavior and nonlinear characteristics of mechanism. Initially, the dynamic model of ALGRM incorporating clearance joints is established using Lagrangian method. Numerical solutions are then obtained using the Runge-Kutta method. Subsequently, COMSOL simulation software is employed to simulate the corrosion morphology of the bearing under atmospheric corrosion, integrating the corroded bearing surfaces into the dynamic model of the mechanism. Finally, the study investigates the effects of corrosion time and different bearing materials on the dynamic behavior and nonlinear characteristics of ALGRM considering atmospheric corrosion. The results indicate that as corrosion time increases, the degradation of the dynamic behavior of ALGRM becomes more pronounced, and there are significant variations for corrosion morphology of bearing made of different materials under atmospheric corrosion. The findings of this study contribute to a broader understanding of the complex interactions between the dynamic behavior of aircraft and environmental degradation, providing some insights for designing ALGRM that are more durable and adaptable to atmospheric corrosion environments.
