Dynamic Response Analysis of the Hydraulic Pipe under Jets of the Aircraft Tire Burst

Abstract

The finite element model of an aircraft hydraulic pipe was established in this paper. Based on LS-Dyna software equivalent static pressure and peak pressure surface loads on the tire burst test (main landing gear retracted state, and did not consider the impact of tire debris) jets were applied to the hydraulic pipe. Both stress and strain contours of hydraulic pipe were obtained under dynamic loading. Plastic strain occurred under both loads on the hydraulic pipe, and the peak pulse loads were more severe than equivalent static loads, the maximum strain reached 0.41172 under the peak pulse loads. However, in both cases the pipe is not broken.
