Multibody dynamics analysis of probe-drogue aerial refueling for hose whipping phenomenon
This study presents a flexible multibody dynamics model of the aerial refueling system and its numerical analysis solution method design for the hose whipping phenomenon(HWP). The mechanism and a suppress method is analyzed, including docking speed, docking length, flight speed and reel response force by simulating the HWP. This study provides important references for improving docking safety.
