Abstract

The landing gear is a structure that supports an aircraft on ground and allows it to taxi, take-off, and land. In fact, landing gear design tends to have several interferences with the aircraft structural design. Present research is going in the weight of landing gear has become an important factor and efforts are being made to reduce the weight of the aircraft landing gear to consequently increase the payload. This thesis presents an approach to optimize the weight of landing gear’s leg for an Un-manned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) made of aluminum ASM 7075 material adopted from aerospace specification materials. Loads are applied through a rigid boundary condition & screw boundary connection.
