Research abstract

Parachutes are widely used in the U.S. Army for airdrop/aerial delivery of personnel and cargo. It is well known that the performance (drag, lift, stability, etc.,) of a parachute is a function of the physical properties of the canopy fabric, such as porosity, and geometry of the canopy, such as air-vent openings.
