With the prospective of developing an integrated monitoring system aimed at assessing whether a landing gear has experienced hard impact during the approach, a dedicated method is developed aimed at determining vertical speed by means of strain measurement via FBG strain sensors. Representative impacts on simple structural elements have been reproduced in laboratory, as aluminum slender beams of different lengths were dropped from given heights onto a steel plate base. Contact velocities have been estimated by deformations detection.

Abstract
With the prospective of developing an integrated monitoring system aimed at assessing whether a landing gear has experienced hard impact during the approach, a dedicated method is developed aimed at determining vertical speed by means of strain measurement via FBG strain sensors. Representative impacts on simple structural elements have been reproduced in laboratory, as aluminum slender beams of different lengths were dropped from given heights onto a steel plate base. Contact velocities have been estimated by deformations detection.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
