Analyzes the impact of wear parameters on landing gear dynamics, suggesting improvement methods.
Over the course of long-term operation, wear to moving parts can significantly affect the dynamic behavior, reliability and service life of landing gear retraction and extension systems. The primary innovation of this paper is the proposal of a multi-body rigid-body dynamics modeling method for LGRES that accounts for irregular wear clearances, along with an analysis of its dynamic response under different system parameters. First, an exact dynamic model of the LGRES with joint clearance is developed. Secondly, the Archard wear model is introduced to characterize the wear evolution of the joint surfaces. Finally, the dynamic behavior of the mechanism under different wear cycles, initial clearance values, and drive speeds is compared to analyze the impact of these system parameters on wear characteristics. The results indicate that as these system parameters increase, wear significantly amplifies the impact forces on the joint and further exacerbates wear between the hinge pin and the bearing, as well as motion errors.
