Helicopter Elastomeric Dampers
Im currently carrying out a project looking into the feasibility of introducing a testing regime for the elastomeric bearings used on the British Army's Apache helicopters.
Im looking to carry a load test to determine if the dampers have lost their damping properties, potentially using a hydraulic press or similar.
If there is anyone who has any experiance of this testing or of any companies that carry it out, I would be very grateful.
