  Aircraft Design for Safety in Emergency Landing
  Author(s): Yuri Spirochkin*
  
  This article addresses the problem safety in emergency landing of an aircraft belonging to the category of transport airplanes. Emergency landing poses a significant challenge to the designers of such aircraft. In this case, the safety requirements aimed at avoiding serious injury to occupants (passengers and crew members) are combined with the uncertainty of the loads acting on impact with the landing surface and the behavior of the aircraft structure, the elements of which are destroyed during the impact. The provisions of airworthiness standards and existing design approaches mainly assume the conditions of a “soft” emergency landing (called a “minor crash landing”, corresponding to minor damage and injury), while in other possible scenarios the chances of survival of occupants are not guaranteed, and there is a safety deficit. To improve safety in this situ.. Read More»
