Aircraft Dynamic Response to Damaged and Repaired Runways.

Abstract

This report contains two papers on the dynamic response of aircraft operating from damaged and repaired runways. In the first paper the response of a simplified representation of an aircraft to two discrete disturbances is analysed to see how the second disturbance modifies system behaviour caused by the first disturbance. The second paper provides a mathematical model which can be used for calculation of the dynamic response of aircraft structures operating on rough surfaces; a comparison is made between theoretical predictions for a YF16 aircraft and typical measurements from frequency response tests. Keywords: Military aircraft; Landing gear; Airframes; Aircraft landing; Undercarriage; Impact shock; West Germany translations.
