Descripción
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). Developing a robust GNC system involves aerodynamics modeling, structural and parametric system identification, understanding the environment PADS glides through developing and testing suitable navigation solutions, guidance strategies, and controllers. --
Notas:"Hypersonic nonequilibrium flows includes fundamental governing equations of nonequilibrium fluid transport and computational approach to calculation of rates and cross-sections in quantized energy states; Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) approach; radiative heat transfer; a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) perspective; surface chemistry, with additional chapters on high enthalpy facilities and the associated diagnostic techniques."--Publisher description
