摘要
A dynamic model of landing gear struts is introduced in a non-inertial coordinate system. Together with a six degrees of freedom model of aircraft ground handling, the model can be applied to investigate the landing gear shimmy and the directional stability of aircraft undergoing non-straight taxiing. Take the K8 aircraft as an example, motions of the strut under both the straight and non-straight taxiing are simulated as well as the directional adjusting procedure of the airframe. Results of the example are reasonable, indicating that the model may have some value in related research.
