[0002] The aircraft landing gear is the most important buffer component during the aircraft take-off and landing process. It absorbs the impact energy during the take-off and landing process and cushions the impact of the ground, making the aircraft take-off and landing process smoother. At the same time, it reduces the landing load to reduce the structural weight of the aircraft, ensuring the safety of the structure and making the aircraft more economical and practical.

[0003] At present, the cushioning effect of the landing gear is mainly verified through ground drop tests, and the energy absorption efficiency is calculated by calculating the energy absorbed by the landing gear during the drop. However, the drop test cannot truly simulate the horizontal speed of the aircraft and the support stiffness of the landing gear, resulting in differences between the verified cushioning performance and the actual situation.

The loading load and structural strain data are recorded synchronously during the test; unidirectional loading in each direction must be performed, as well as two-way and three-way combined loading; the buffer fixed stroke includes at least three, named in sequence: s1, s2, s3, s1 <s2<s3;

[0079] Step 3: Substitute the loading load and the structural strain data measured by the load-measuring strain gauge under each stroke into the load-measuring model, and obtain the coefficients of the load-measuring model through linear regression; the coefficients of the load-measuring model for other strokes are obtained through linear difference;
