An active control undercarriage for the alleviation of aircraft landing gear and structural loads during operation on rough runway surfaces is described. For quantitative determination of the improvements obtained with an active control undercarriage compared with conventional landing gear systems, aircraft taxiing is realistically simulated by means of a laboratory test set-up especially designed for this kind of testing.
