Study on the Rocking Phenomenon of Parachute Rope
Abstract: With the constant development of computer technology and the development of numerical simulation techniques, the simulation of the dynamics of the parachute is becoming increasingly accurate. To eliminate the effects of large deformation of the grid in the conventional parachute simulation, we chose the parachute model using the smooth particle hydrodynamics method and performed a steady-state fluid-solid coupling numerical simulation, which is in good agreement with the calculated gas power …

Study on the Method of Calculation of the Additional Mass of Parachute
Abstract: As is well known, the air drag experienced by a parachute when it is open is one of the important parameters that must be taken into account in studying the parachute opening process. If this term is not calculated correctly, it can have a negative effect on the parachute canopy, and may lead to errors in the number of parachute strings, the nominal diameter of the parachute, and the material …
