Sumario: | This book provides an overview of the recent developments in precision aerial cargo delivery from the standpoint of developing guidance, navigation and control (GNC) algorithms for the self-guided parafoil and parachute-based aerial delivery systems (PADS). Topics include: PADS and measures of their effectiveness; basic analysis of the ram-air parachute; key factors affecting PADS landing accuracy; aerodynamic characterization of parafoils; equations of motion; stability and steady-state performance; guidance, navigation, and control; glide-angle control; control of nongliding parachute systems; flight test instrumentation; parametrical identification of PADS. -- |
