Abstract
Method and device for determining the weight and/or a characteristic value of the position of the center of gravity of an aircraft standing on the ground by means of a plurality of undercarriages, each undercarriage including at least one structural element exhibiting a variable level of stresses depending on the fraction of the weight of the aircraft transmitted to the ground through the undercarriage. The method includes the steps ofa) measuring on each undercarriage at least one parameter representing the stress level of the element; and b) evaluating the characteristic value and/or the weight according to the parameters measured in step a). At least one parameter measured in step a) is a magnetic or electrical characteristic of the structural element of the undercarriage.
