Design of the nose landing gear for Zlin 40 aircraft

This master’ thesis deals with the design of the front landing gear for Zlín 40 aircrafts. The main emphasis in the research part of the work is placed on the selection of a new nose landing gear and the subsequent design of the structure. For the structural design was prepared a new mass analysis and load cases. The load-bearing capacity of the structure is verified using analytical and numerical methods of FEM. An important step of the work is the design concept of structure. The aim of the work is to point out the new possibilities of the nose landing gear structure and verify its feasibility for the case of future implementation
