Landing Gear Oscillation Prediction Based on DFNN and SINDY
摘要
To address the limitations of traditional physical models (parameter sensitivity; nonlinear disturbances) in accurately predicting aircraft landing gear oscillation dynamics for flight safety, this paper proposes the dual-objective integration framework DFNN-SINDy, which aims to integrate the respective advantages of SINDy (interpretable dynamic equation extraction) and DFNN (high-precision prediction) to provide a comprehensive solution for analyzing landing gear oscillation.
MethodBased on Takens' embedding theorem, single-dimensional vibration time series are reconstructed into a high-dimensional phase space. A Dynamic Feedforward Neural Network (DFNN) captures temporal dependencies within this space. Simultaneously, Sparse Identification of Nonlinear Dynamics (SINDy) constructs a basis function library (linear/nonlinear terms) and uses L1-regularized sparse regression to extract interpretable dynamic equations.
ResultsFor dynamic oscillation prediction, DFNN achieved ultra-low errors (1 × 10⁻5 to 4 × 10⁻⁶). Under Gaussian noise (σ = 0.1), predicted curves closely tracked real signals. On experimental data (50–150 km/h), DFNN error remained stable (2 × 10⁻3 to 1.5 × 10⁻2), showing strong robustness. SINDy successfully identified key parameters (e.g., strut stiffness, error < 0.1%; axle damping) in multi-dimensional simulations, controlling prediction errors within ± 2 × 10⁻3. However, SINDy failed on single-dimensional experimental data due to incomplete state space.
ConclusionThe DFNN-SINDy framework provides a high-precision tool for real-time landing gear oscillation monitoring via DFNN (response time < 0.1 s). It also guides structural parameter optimization (e.g., critical damping ratio design) through the interpretable equations output by SINDy.
