THE use of numerical simulation for the analysis of parachute systems has grown
considerably over the last two decades. This trend has not been driven by just the desire to …

An efficient method for the aeroelastic analysis of wind effects on inflatable structures is
presented. The solution scheme is staggered and uses an explicit finite-element structural …

A technique for the aeroelastic solution of parachute decelerators is presented in this work.
The methodology uses empirical aerodynamics, based on a filling-time inflation model and …

Wind loads play a crucial role in inflatable structures. Unfortunately, design loads from safety
regulations grossly overestimate the real aerodynamic forces. Thus, a more accurate …

A día de hoy, a pesar de que las estructuras neumáticas hayan dejado de ser una novedad
y sehan convertido en una tipología de estructura común en numerosos ámbitos, todavía no …
