SUMMARY

The discussion revolves around the challenge of obtaining detailed drawings of aircraft landing gear for optimization purposes in Catia. Participants highlight that such drawings are typically proprietary and not publicly accessible. Instead, they recommend sourcing images of landing gear with known reference objects to facilitate reverse engineering of the design. This approach allows for the creation of a model in Catia without direct access to official schematics.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Catia V5 or V6 for 3D modeling
  • Knowledge of reverse engineering techniques
  • Familiarity with aircraft design principles
  • Ability to interpret technical drawings and specifications
NEXT STEPS
  • Research techniques for reverse engineering using reference images
  • Explore Catia V5/V6 tutorials focused on aircraft component modeling
  • Investigate proprietary information policies in aerospace engineering
  • Learn about CAD software alternatives for aircraft design
USEFUL FOR

Aerospace engineers, mechanical designers, and students involved in aircraft design and optimization who require insights into modeling techniques and proprietary information challenges.

I have to do optimization of a landing gear of an aircraft but can not find anywhere sketches of the landing gear. Can anyone tell me where I can find these drawings? I must be detailed drawings to build the landing gear in Catia.

It's doubtful that you're going to be able to get access to drawings of an aircraft's landing gear because they are proprietary information for the company that makes the aircraft. Your best bet will be pictures (with a few objects of known size) from which you can reverse-engineer the general design.
