A two dimensional parachute model was developed to compute various characteristics of the steady descent of a parachute system. The model demonstrates characteristics similar to those shown from both qualitative and quantitative measurements on full-scale parachutes. The model is in a form suitable for investigating the effect of parachute system parameters and experimentally measured aerodynamic characteristics on the stability of a descent, in particular the relationship between oscillation and gliding. The model is also suitable for investigating the effect of wind on parachute oscillation using measured wind profiles. (Author)
