Side Force on Landing Gear

11/14/2012 8:34 AM

I am referring to side force equation for landing gear on NASA material "The simulation of a large jet transport aircraft. Vol 1 and Vol 2. (19710009764_1971009764.pdf and 19730001300_1973001300.pdf)". I am not able to understand the constants and units for HT(1, 2,3) and GT(1,2,3) in Page no. 322 of 19730001300_1973001300.pdf. Could anyone please explain me how this constants HT and GT were derived and its units.

Thanks,
Subash S.

Not without seeing it. How about posting a hyperlink to the page in the document?

Surly there's a more current paper available.This paper is 40 years old.

The terms probably aren't even in vogue now.

No help here, sorry.

Maybe your instructor can help.

'...Could anyone please explain me how this constants HT and GT were derived...'

.

...experimentally? at least partially. That is my guess.

The link for the first paper seems to be HERE. The second one didn't yield a google hit.
