Parachute-Payload System Flight Dynamics and Trajectory Simulation by Giorgio Guglieri

“…The dynamics of the system are modeled through a simple multibody model that represents the expected behavior of an entry vehicle during the terminal deceleration phase. The simulators are designed according to a comprehensive vision that enforces the simplification of the coupling mechanism between the payload and the parachute, with an adequate level of physical insight still available. …”

Time-Varying Biased Proportional Guidance with Seeker’s Field-of-View Limit by Zhe Yang, Hui Wang, Defu Lin

“…In the proposed guidance law, two time-varying bias terms are applied to divide the trajectory into initial phase and terminal phase. The initial bias is designed as a function of LOS rate and look angle to maintain the seeker’s lock-on while the final bias eliminates the deviation between the integral value of angle control bias and the expected bias amount. …”
