Assessment for Failure Probability of Landing Gear Structural Fuse and Improvement Measure
착륙장치용 Structural Fuse 파손확률 계산 및 개선 방안
Abstract
The reason for crashworthy landing gear is to contribute to the overall aircraft design goals in the event of a crash. One of crashworthy landing gear design approaches is inclusion of structural fuse. Structural fuse is used to control the mode of failure of landing gear. If structural fuse doesn't work at desired condition, other unexpected accidents can occur. In this paper, failure probability is calculated for landing gear structural fuse and improvement measure is introduced to improve failure probability of structural fuse.
