Summary: | Aircraft ditching is an emergency landing scenario that must be considered in aircraft design.Summarizing the research methods for the numerical simulation of ditching can provide the support for ditching analysis of civil aircraft design.The research progress of numerical simulation methods available for civil aircraft ditching are reviewed in this paper,which includes plane element method,finite volume method,smoothed particle hydrodynamic method and finite element method.The basic principles,development process and application situations of these methods are summarized,and the adaptability and superiority-inferiority of these methods are performed with contrastive analysis.By analyzing the numerical simulation methods of aircraft ditching,the future research direction of numerical simulation methods is proposed.
