As a key component of the landing gear shock absorption system, the shock absorber plays a crucial role during takeoff and landing of the aircraft.

The illustrative embodiments and descriptions of the present invention are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0017] Prognostics and Health Management (PHM) of fault prediction and health management is widely applied in various fields, mainly in the field of aeroengines. Especially in the Aircraft Logistics Information System (ALIS) of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, it covers several functions such as aircraft system status monitoring, health assessment, fault prediction, and maintenance planning. Through Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM), the PHM system records and analyzes the health data of electronic systems to achieve the health management of the system. With the progress of technology, the PHM system will be more intelligent and automated, capable of predicting faults more accurately, reducing unplanned downtime, and improving the reliability and efficiency of equipment. The existing Prognostics and Health Management (PHM) of fault prediction and health management has the following problems: Currently, the fault diagnosis of the landing gear mainly relies on maintenance manuals and manual experience, with high labor costs, inability to monitor faults not included in the manuals, and the accuracy of fault diagnosis depending on experience; the pressure gauge can only monitor the air pressure of the oil-gas shock absorber and cannot monitor the internal structure that also affects the performance of the shock absorber. Therefore, based on the above technical problems, this embodiment further improves the existing pre-diagnosis and health management means to obtain the specific implementation content of this implementation: As a possible implementation, as Figure 1 shown, this embodiment provides a method for fault diagnosis of a landing gear shock absorber system, specifically including the following steps: Construct a dynamic model, collect aircraft fuselage data and wheel data based on the dynamic model, preprocess the aircraft fuselage data and wheel data to obtain the fuselage vertical acceleration signal and the wheel vertical acceleration signal; Construct a fault response database based on the fuselage vertical acceleration signal and the wheel vertical acceleration signal; Construct an initial fault model, input the data of the fault response database into the initial fault model to train the initial fault model, and obtain a trained fault diagnosis model; Perform fault diagnosis based on the trained fault diagnosis model and output the diagnosis result, and the diagnosis result is also used to reverse-optimize the fault response database.
[0018] In some possible implementation manners, the specific steps for constructing the dynamic model include: Set virtual acceleration sensors at the fuselage and wheels respectively to collect the vertical accelerations of the fuselage and wheels during the landing gear simulation process. The sampling frequency of the virtual acceleration sensors is 1000 Hz. The calculation results are as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown: According to the model of the oil-gas shock absorber of the target aircraft, obtain the stiffness and damping parameters for detecting the oil-gas shock absorber of the target aircraft, where: Based on the air pressure data, the air spring force of the oil-gas shock absorber is obtained, specifically including: The formula for the air spring force of the oil-gas shock absorber is: ; where P $p_0$ is the initial pressure of the air chamber, V $V_0$ is the initial volume of the air chamber, $A$ is the piston displacement area, $p_{atm}$ is the atmospheric pressure, μ $s$ is the compression stroke of the shock absorber, γ $n$ is the polytropic coefficient; Based on the forward and reverse stroke speeds of the shock absorber and the oil data, the oil damping force of the oil-gas shock absorber is obtained, specifically including: The formula for the oil damping force of the oil-gas shock absorber is: ; where $\rho$ is the oil density, A h $A_{net}$ is the net cross-sectional area of the oil chamber, C d $C_d$ is the oil contraction coefficient, A d $A_{main}$ is the cross-sectional area of the main oil hole, $v$ is the forward and reverse stroke speed of the shock absorber; Based on the stiffness and damping parameters of the oil-gas shock absorber, the tire force is obtained, specifically including: The formula for the tire force is: ; where k s $k_t$ is the tire spring stiffness, c δ $c_t$ is the tire spring damping coefficient, δ $x_t$ is the tire compression, $\dot{x}_t$ is the tire compression speed; The aircraft gravity is obtained, combined with the tire force, the oil damping force of the oil-gas shock absorber, and the air spring force of the oil-gas shock absorber, to obtain the landing impact force, and a mechanical relationship is constructed, specifically including: Since when the aircraft lands, the nose landing gear is mainly subjected to the following forces: gravity G $G$, F l landing impact force F v $F_{li}$, F h tire force $F_t$, oil damping force
[0019] $F_d$, air spring force $F_a$, therefore, a dynamic model is constructed according to the aircraft mechanical relationship, specifically including:
[0019] In some possible implementation manners, obtaining the fuselage vertical acceleration signal and the wheel vertical acceleration signal further includes: Fusing the fuselage vertical acceleration signal and the wheel vertical acceleration signal to obtain fusion data; The fused data becomes array data, which includes: time array data, fuselage acceleration array data, and wheel acceleration array data.
[0020] In some possible implementation manners, such as Figure 2 As shown, the specific steps for constructing the initial fault model include: Construct an input layer, a feature extraction layer, a feature integration layer, and an output layer, where: The input layer is used to receive the fuselage acceleration and the wheel acceleration; The feature extraction layer includes multiple convolutional layers and pooling layers, and is used to extract features from the input data; The feature integration layer includes multiple fully connected layers, and is used to integrate the features obtained from the feature extraction layer; The output layer is used to output the fault data.
[0021] In some possible implementation manners, the initial fault model mainly includes a convolutional layer, a flattening layer, a connection layer, and a pooling layer; Wherein: The convolutional layer slides over the input data through a series of learnable convolutional kernels to capture local feature patterns; The pooling layer downsamples the output of the convolutional layer. By selecting the maximum value in each small region, it reduces the spatial dimension of the data (i.e., dimensionality reduction), while retaining important feature information; Each neuron in the fully connected layer is connected to all neurons in the previous layer, and is responsible for integrating and learning the non-linear relationships between features, providing a basis for the final diagnostic decision; At the output end of the fully connected layer, a softmax activation function is introduced. The softmax function can convert the original output of the network into a probability distribution form, and each output value represents the prediction probability of the corresponding category, so that the model can give the confidence of each possible diagnostic result; In order to improve the training efficiency and performance of the model, the fault diagnosis model incorporates batch normalization (Batch Normalization) and dropout techniques at two key positions. Among them, batch normalization effectively normalizes the activation values into a fixed interval by calculating the mean and standard deviation on each small batch of data and performing corresponding bias adjustment and scale scaling on the data.
[0022] In some possible implementation manners, when the feature extraction layer extracts features from the input data, the processing process of multiple convolutional layers and pooling layers includes: The first convolution converts the input data of the first convolutional layer from None×6×64 to None×3×64; Second convolution, converting the input data of the second convolutional layer from None×3×64 to None×3×64; First pooling, converting the input data of the first pooling layer from None×6×64 to None×64; Third convolution, converting the input data of the third convolutional layer from None×6×64 to None×64; Second pooling, converting the input data of the second pooling layer from None×64 to None×3.
[0023] In some possible implementation manners, when processing each convolutional layer and pooling layer, it further includes: Calculating the mean and standard deviation of each mini-batch of data; Performing bias adjustment and scaling on the data according to the mean and standard deviation, and normalizing the activation values to a set interval. In some possible implementation manners, the fault response database mainly includes the vertical landing speeds of the aircraft (0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 m / s), 3 types of fault forms of the initial gas pressure P0, initial gas volume V0, and oil hole area As of the shock absorber, and each fault form includes 5 parameter cases (normal 1.0, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, normal parameters), etc. The vertical vibration accelerations of the fuselage and wheels under such states are included.
[0024] In some possible implementation manners, the fault diagnosis model is trained using the vertical vibration acceleration signals of the fuselage and wheels in the fault response database. By training the initial fault model, the diagnostic accuracy rates of different faults are obtained. The trained fault diagnosis result (initial gas pressure fault) is as Figure 5 shown In some possible implementation manners, during the actual flight of the aircraft, the vibration acceleration signals collected by the sensors during the aircraft landing process are as Figure 6 and Figure 7 shown.
[0025] In some possible implementation manners, the vibration data collected by the sensors is input into the fault diagnosis model, and the fault diagnosis result is an initial gas pressure fault of the landing gear shock absorber, and the fault level is a 20% reduction in air pressure.

[0027] In some possible implementation manners, a data acquisition unit includes a sensor, a collector, a storage unit, and a power supply unit that are interconnected; the sensor includes a fuselage sensor and a landing gear sensor. The fuselage sensor is installed on the cockpit floor, as close as possible to the floor center line; the landing gear sensor is installed on the aircraft hub or fork, as close as possible to the center line of the landing gear strut. Both the fuselage sensor and the landing gear sensor adopt vibration sensors. Due to the composition of the hardware system in this implementation and the use of vibration sensors, the robustness is higher, and it is easier to communicate with airworthiness certification. Moreover, the sensor system only collects the vertical accelerations of the landing gear and the fuselage, and the structure is simple.
[0028] As a possible implementation manner, this embodiment provides an electronic device, including a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored on the memory and executable on the processor. When the processor executes the program, it implements a fault diagnosis method for a landing gear shock absorption system.
