Stochastic Modeling of an Aircraft Traversing a Runway Using Time Series Analysis

TLDR: Time series analysis is applied to problems concerning runwayinduced vibrations of an aircraft and a simple mathematical model based on this technique is fitted to obtain the impulse response coefficients of an Aircraft system considered as a whole for a particular type of operation.

Abstract: Time series, from a narrow point of view, is a sequence of observations on a stochastic process made at discrete and equally spaced time intervals. Its future behavior can be predicted by identifying, fitting, and confirming a mathematical model. In this paper, time series analysis is applied to problems concerning runwayinduced vibrations of an aircraft. A simple mathematical model based on this technique is fitted to obtain the impulse response coefficients of an aircraft system considered as a whole for a particular type of operation. Using this model, the output which is the aircraft response can be obtained with lesser computation time for any runway profile as the input.
