Distortion Analysis of Landing Gear during Oil Quench

Date Published:

June 15, 2016

Abstract:

Large distortions after oil quenching in the following distortion modes: Bow in XY-Plane. Bow in YZ-Plane. Straightness of a Blind Hole. All distortion modes shown in the figures make assembly of the entire structure very difficult. Immersion into the oil tank is the main focus of the distortion analysis.
