Similarity Design Method of the Inflatable Buffer Landing System
International Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2019 The inflatable buffer landing system, such as the airbag, has been widely used for deep space exploration as a low-cost entry. The impact performance of an airbag landing attenuation system on Mars had to be proven through cushion testing on Earth.
