This typer of designRE AO283 POST 531 "
I am not familiar with the engine break away design scenario’s of the 777. But this case will surely be used to review them. I wonder if the sequence of events of this accident will turn out to be one of the 'foreseen' scenario's, either a design one or even a certification one.
SUGGEST you take a look at posts 260 thru 290 around page 14 re a short discussion and response re strut design parameters started by myself ( CONSO ) short version is the strut system is designed to fail such that engine pivots up over the wing to protect frontspar etc. Also dry bay on each side of strut assembly. Normally for a straight ahead landing failure or in air failure. What happens with side loads as shown by video becomes a bit more problamatical.
This type of design parameter has been standard for decades at least at Boeing
