Abstract: A system and various methods for determining a center of mass of an aircraft with a plurality of shock strut assemblies is illustrated. Multiple sensors, including a gas pressure sensor, and/or a position sensor, may be used to gather data and determine the center of mass of the aircraft. Various methods illustrated herein may evaluate the center of mass relative to a wheelbase axis and a wheel tread axis based on the gathered data.

Abstract: A method for weight off wheel shock strut servicing includes deflating the shock strut, compressing the shock strut via a jack until the shock strut is in a compressed position, charging the shock strut with an oil until a pressure of the oil reduces a volume of a residual air located inside of the shock strut, lowering the jack until a shock strut piston reaches a pre-determined extension, and charging the shock strut with a gas until the gas comprises a pre-determined pressure.

Abstract: Methods for servicing shock struts are provided. In various embodiments, a method for servicing a shock strut may comprise deflating the shock strut; compressing the shock strut until the shock strut is in a fully compressed position; and charging the shock strut with a liquid until a pressure of the liquid decreases a volume of a residual air located inside of the shock strut. In various embodiments, charging the shock strut with liquid under pressure may reduce the volume of trapped air inside of the shock strut to a negligible volume, eliminating the servicing variations.

Abstract: A monitoring system for a dual-stage, stroke activated, mixed fluid gas shock strut may comprise a controller, and a tangible, non-transitory memory configured to communicate with the controller. The tangible, non-transitory memory may have instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by the controller, cause the controller to perform various operations. Said operations may include calculating, by the controller, a compression factor, determining, by the controller, a plurality of compression factors for known oil volumes based on at least one of the primary chamber temperature sensor reading and the shock strut stroke sensor reading, and calculating, by the controller, an oil volume in a primary chamber of the shock strut.

Abstract: A hard-landing detection system includes a wheel assembly, a shock strut mechanically coupled to the wheel assembly and to landing gear structure of the landing gear assembly, a controller having a processor, and a tangible, non-transitory memory configured to communicate with the processor. The tangible, non-transitory memory has instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by the processor, cause the hard-landing detection system to perform operations that include detecting, by the processor, a landing event and determining, by the processor, whether the landing event is hard. The hard-landing system may further include a stroke position sensor and detecting the landing event may include using the stroke position sensor to measure a stroke profile of the shock strut. Further, determining whether the landing event is hard may include comparing, by the processor, the stroke profile of the shock strut to a predetermined maximum shock strut stroke.
