Response of a linearized aircraft to runway disturbances

A statistical analysis has been developed, using power spectral density methods, to examine the response of an aircraft to runway unevenness. The analysis includes rigid body heave pitch and any number of symmetrical flexural modes of the airframe, linear values of main and nose oleo and tyre stiffn...
