i was referring to this pic (from reply 19) ...
... which I read as 6.8 kN axial load in one member and 3.2kN shear in the other, so the members have bending stiffness (to support shear loads) ...
and the FB looks "off" ... I see the 3.2 kN creating an unbalanced moment about the load, and...
AME ... "This is not a degree, but a licensed course focused on certifying aircraft for flight." not as I understand it ... an AME license is required for someone doing maintenance on a plane. Companies making planes (or modifying them) usually use an AME license as a "ticket through the door"...
you want the op2 or f04 files.
but why are you extracting results from the output, rather than using a post-processor (like FeMap or PATRAN) ?
but you can use the predictability of the f06 to find text strings and count lines to the number of interest (what I did some 30 years ago before...
yeah, but ... you've modelled the spokes as beams, and the lateral one is picking up a lot of load. If axial rods then the result would be "different" (for the load given it would all be reacted by the aligned spoke; for different loads each spoke would react the component load).
agreed, all required inspections to "verify the serviceability and operational integrity of the main landing gear" as a complete system (ie the MLG itself and the on-aircraft components of the MLG system) are defined (and prescribed) by the AMM. If you think there is something missing, then you...
is this a single element ? or 1000 ??
if it is a single element, then you'll need to break it into 5 quite nasty shaped elements.
if 1000, then nodes already exist where needed so "NP".
maybe worry about things not being perfectly aligned ? But then the buckling is based on a single bay length, so maybe this isn't something to worry about ?
I think you want the f04 or the op2 files.
Why are you not using a post-processor (like FeMap or PATRAN) to view the results ?
Alternatively you can do what I did some 40 years ago (OMG) ... the f06 file is very predictable so you can figure out particular text strings and use something like...
I'd put the a/c on jacks and cycle the gear.
If you want to apply loads, like landing then you need a rig like the manufacturer's have.
What are you trying to do ? Why do you want to do this ??
is "break" a typo for "brake" ?
Are you trying to test the hydraulic components mounted on the...
Have you answered your own question ?
I'd've thought that engines were very susceptible to even small loads, but if this is a thing that OEMs don't worry about, then why you ?
I'd've thought (like SWC) that OEMs did worry about this, and do so in a proprietary manner, so you may not find open...
it sounds like your "guideline" is an inhouse stress Analysis Handbook.
It sounds like most I've encountered where various other manuals are "shamelessly" plagiarized.
And in each copying, some meaning is lost. I've used the McCombs tension table.
My suggestion would be to run some tests so...
I'm sorry, I can barely understand your post !?
what moves, and what is fixed ?? can you explain the sketch some more ?
why does the latch only react Ry (out-of-plane) loads ?
As for one latch or two, is this an interior monument ? if so there are FAR requirements about latching (that...
we're not told anything about friction, so "ignore" ?
there seems something "odd" with ...

3000+ views and no replies ... that should tell you something.
1) we don't know much about India or the Engineering profession there.
2) ask someone closer to home
3) understand there is quite a difference between airlines and airplane manufacturing (and design).
what is the stiffness of the "ground" ?
if it is "rigid" then the force is "infinite". the stiffness controls the duration of the impact, how the bar decelerates. If the ground is infinitely rigid, then the impact is "instantaneous".
If you know the force then you can calculate the stress...
I'd probably go with Ftu over the min thread area. I might try to calibrate this with other fasteners or by simple test. I wouldn't use 110ksi for 160ksi.
get long term funding, by showing that the offices increase output (and so incomes and taxes) or increase popular opinion of the government (making reelection more likely).
