Book excerpt: The aircraft industry jointly with NASA is studying enabling technologies for higher speed, longer range aircraft configurations. Higher speeds, higher temperatures, and aerodynamics are driving these newer aircraft configurations towards long, slender, flexible fuselages. Aircraft response during ground operations, although often overlooked, is a concern due to the increased fuselage flexibility. This paper discusses modeling and simulation of the High Speed Civil Transport aircraft during taxiing, take-off, and landing. Finite element models of the airframe for various configurations are used and combined with nonlinear landing gear models to provide a simulation tool to study responses to different ground input conditions. A commercial computer simulation program is used to numerically integrate the equations of motion and to compute estimates of the responses using an existing runway profile. Results show aircraft responses exceeding safe acceptable human response levels.Reaves, Mercedes C. and Horta, Lucas G.Langley Research CenterAIRCRAFT PERFORMANCE; COMPUTERIZED SIMULATION; FINITE ELEMENT METHOD; LANDING SIMULATION; SUPERSONIC TRANSPORTS; TAKEOFF; TAXIING; AIRFIELD SURFACE MOVEMENTS; DYNAMIC RESPONSE; MATHEMATICAL MODELS; FLIGHT CHARACTERISTICS; TRANSPORT AIRCRAFT; EQUATIONS OF MOTION; AIRCRAFT LANDING; COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT; LANDING GEAR; NUMERICAL INTEGRATION; VIBRATION MODE
