A Simple and Accurate Apollo-Trained Neural Network Controller for Mars Atmospheric Entry
International Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2020 We present a new method to design the controller for Mars capsule atmospheric entry using deep neural networks and flight-proven Apollo entry data. The controller is trained to modulate the bank angle with data from the Apollo entry simulations.

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.
