Application of inerter to aircraft landing gear suspension

The inerter was recently proposed as a two-terminal mechanical element with the property that the force across the element is proportional to the relative acceleration of its two terminals. Improvement has been observed through introducing inerters into various suspension systems. In this paper, the...

Summary:The inerter was recently proposed as a two-terminal mechanical element with the property that the force across the element is proportional to the relative acceleration of its two terminals. Improvement has been observed through introducing inerters into various suspension systems. In this paper, the investigation is focused on the shimmy vibration in the aircraft landing gears and the performance variation with the application of inerters. By the method of simulation, the performance changes have been observed and analyzed.
