Wheel Performance. Phase 1. Analysis

Abstract

This report describes the procedures of analysis and dynamometer testing that may be used to develop data and supporting technology for improving aircraft wheel performance. As related to current wheel standards and in-service inspection procedures, load/test spectras which characterize wheel operating environments (associated with long, medium and short haul aircraft) are defined. These spectra may be applied as a basis for effective dynamometer testing and to the verification of wheel service limits taking into account stress corrosion and crack growth conditions.
