ОСОБЛИВОСТІ ЗАСТОСУВАННЯ МЕТОДІВ ФІЗИЧНОГО МОДЕЛЮВАННЯ ДЛЯ АНАЛІЗУ ПРОЦЕСУ ПРИЗЕМЛЕННЯ ПАРАШУТНИХ ПЛАТФОРМ НА НАДУВНІ ПОВІТРЯНІ АМОРТИЗАТОРИ

Research has been carried out aimed at developing the theoretical bases of physical modelling of landing processes of parachute platforms on inflatable air shock absorbers. At the same time, the features of the application of physical modeling methods for solving this task are considered. The conditions, landing features and operation of parachute platform devices at landing on inflatable air shock absorbers are determined. It is shown that presently parachute-depreciation systems have become widespread, in which soft tissue shells are used, filled through the inlet openings with atmospheric or air injected from gas bottles air. The operation of these devices is based on the compression of air in the shell and expiration of him through exit holes (valves). At the same time, air inflatable shells absorb the kinetic energy of the impact, controlling the release of air through exit holes.It has been established that the most effective method for studying the behavior of a dropped vehicle is physical modelling, which uses a free-flying dynamically similar model (FDSM) or stand dynamically similar model (DSM) of a dropped object as an research object. Modeling of landing processes of parachute platforms on inflatable air shock absorbers is not related to the dynamics of the flight and air flow around surfaces. Therefore, for this task, the existing developments in physical modelling of dynamics flight cannot be applied, and for the theoretical substantiation of the dynamic similarity to modeling motion, it makes sense to use the laws of gas dynamics in regard to air shock absorbers.
