Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a method for detecting a hard landing comprising: i) determining three ground components of a ground reaction force, and determining, for each connector of a landing gear, three attachment components of a force applied to this connector, ii) determining whether a ground stress point defined by the three ground components lies within or outside a ground dimensioning envelope, and, for each connector, whether an attachment stress point defined by the three corresponding attachment components lies within or outside an attachment dimensioning envelope, iii) determining that a hard landing has been made when at least the ground stress point lies outside the ground dimensioning envelope or at least one attachment stress point lies outside the corresponding attachment dimensioning envelope.
