Fokker 100 Brake Disc Actuator Main Landing Gear
[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Tahoma]Dear users,[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Tahoma]I have a problem with a calculation. I have got an assignment. For this assignment I have to redesign the brake actuators for the brake discs of the main landing gear of th fokker 100. I have forgotten how to calculate a force that goes sideways. The sideway forces are created when the lineair actuator pushes the brake disc on the wheels. For the calculation I have a few values.

[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Tahoma]- Total brake disc mass: 237,84 kg (90% worn brake, CS25.109i)[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Tahoma]- CS-25 braking speed is= -3,0 m/s^2[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Tahoma]- Assumed distance from neutral position actuator to the wheel= 5 cm[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Tahoma]- Kinetic energy brake discs: 162 MJ[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Tahoma]- Maximum actuator force for each actuator: 40.000N[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Tahoma]I have a few questions: [/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Tahoma]1 - Which formula do I need to determine the force that the actuators need to push the brake discs?[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Tahoma]2 - How much actuators do I need in total on each wheel?[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Tahoma]3 - What is the Work of each actuator?[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Tahoma]4 - What is the Power of each actuator?[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Tahoma]To be clear, I DON'T need to know the maximum kinetic energy capability of the brake disc, these questions are aimed only for the actuators. I need to know how much power the actuator need to produce and how much of them I need them on 1 wheel.[/FONT][/COLOR]
