Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An aircraft vehicular front wheel landing gear assembly is provided that includes a nonelastomeric outer upper strut tubular member having an inner axial center bore with a tubular cylindrical frictional interface inner surface segment, and a nonelastomeric inner lower strut member having an outer bonding surface segment. The nonelastomeric inner member is rotationally received in the outer strut member inner axial center bore with the nonelastomeric inner strut member rotatable within said outer strut member. The assembly includes an elastomeric surface effect damper member encompassing the nonelastomeric inner strut member outer bonding surface segment. The elastomeric surface effect damper member has an inner bonding surface segment and an outer elastomer surface, the inner bonding surface segment is bonded to the nonelastomeric inner strut member outer bonding surface segment. The assembly includes a surface effect lubricant disposed between the elastomeric surface effect damper outer elastomer surface and the nonelastomeric outer strut member frictional interface inner surface segment with the elastomeric surface effect damper outer elastomer surface engaging the nonelastomeric outer strut member frictional interface inner surface segment and inhibiting an oscillating shimmy rotation.
