Landing Gear System Structural Design
Problem Statement Consider the landing gear shown below. Working in teprns of two, come up with a single optimized design for given operational conditions and design considerations with a design factor of n=1.5.
Design objective: minimize Me structural weight
Design variabks: Dimensions of cylinder and axle (Drod, Dbore_or and Daxle_i)
Design considerations: yield failure, bucking, fatigue strength
Maximum landing load = 250kg (consider the dynarnic effect factor = 2.0), Target life = 100000 Cycles Any other information needed for your design must be explaind and added as your assumption.
