Abstract
This report presents a theoretical study of the behavior of the conventional type of oleo-pneumatic landing gear during the process of landing impact. The basic analysis is presented in a general form and treats the motions of the landing gear prior to and subsequent to the beginning of shock-strut deflection. The applicability of the analysis to actual landing gears has been investigated for the particular case of a vertical landing gear in the absence of drag loads by comparing calculated results with experimental drop-test data for impacts with and without tire bottoming. The calculated behavior of the landing gear was found to be in good agreement with the drop-test data.

Dynamic Analysis of Aircraft Landing Impact Using Landing-Region-Based Model

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the air-compression process in the lower chamber of a shock-strut axial stroke at zero stroke and the air volume in the upper chamber of the shock strut at zero-stroke.

Effect of interaction on landing-gear behavior and dynamic loads in a flexible airplane structure

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of interaction between a landing gear and a flexible airplane structure on the behavior of the landing gear, and the loads in the structure have been studied by treating the equations of motion of the airplane and landing gear as a coupled system.

Oleopneumatic shock strut dynamic analysis and its real-time simulation

TL;DR: An analog simulation representing dynamic shock absorption characteristics of a conventional oleopneumatic landing gear strut has been developed and provides an important design tool for optimizing pin profile, as well as evaluating existing shock strut designs.
