    Abstract
  • The essence of aircraft towing taxi mode was studied. The connotation and driving factors of towing taxi were proposed, and six key issues to realize aircraft towing taxi were put forward, including kinematics and environmental load analysis during towing taxi, multibody system dynamics of towing taxi, structural mechanical responses of the nose landing gear of aircraft, motion perception and control of the system, towing taxi equipment and physical test platform, and impact of towing taxi on airport operation rules. In addition, the research status and development trend of the six key issues were analyzed, and the technical difficulties and challenges faced in implementing the new mode were explored. Analysis results show that compared with traditional towing, the kinematics calculation of towing taxi requires higher precision and real-time performance, a high-precision algorithm of system motion should be established to realize the safety estimation of towing taxi, and the coupling effect of various factors such as the towing taxi system motion status of high-speed and heavy-duty aircraft, airport road conditions, and control inputs, may lead to limit phenomena, such as lateral instability and detachment. The research on the dynamic behavior of the system needs to consider the nonlinear characteristics of the structure and system. In order to ensure the safety of nose landing gear subjected to longitudinal traction and vertical vibration coupling conditions under long-distance towing taxi, it is necessary to study its structural dynamic response and ultimate working condition behavior mechanism. Man-machine interactive mode and pilot perception control method need to be analyzed to achieve the precise control of towing taxi movements by pilots, and tests are required for the verification. The using time of aircraft engines during ground operation can be shortened by towing taxi technology, and fuel consumption and carbon emissions can be reduced, but the complexity of airport surface operations will increase. Therefore, a new scene operation management rules in airport flight area system should be established.
