This book was released on 1960 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An experimental investigation has been made to determine the landing characteristics of a conical-shaped reentry capsule by using torus-shaped air bags for impact alleviation. An impact bag was attached below the large end of the capsule to absorb initial impact loads and a second bag was attached around the canister to absorb loads resulting from impact on the canister when the capsule overturned. A 1/6-scale dynamic model of the configuration was tested for nominal flight paths of 600 and 900 (vertical), a range of contact attitudes from -250 to 300, and a vertical contact velocity of 12.25 feet per second. Accelerations were measured along the X-axis (roll) and Z-axis (yaw) by accelerometers rigidly installed at the center of gravity of the model. Actual flight paths, contact attitudes, and motions were determined from high-speed motion pictures. Landings were made on concrete and on water.
