Dynamic analysis of aircraft landing gear

Landing gear dynamics, especially shimmy and break-induced vibrations, is one of the problems faced today by the aircraft community. Landing gear vibration may lead to fatal accidents due to excessive wear; it can also shorten the gear life, and affect comfort to the pilot and passengers. Among the...
