Abstract

Dynamics of landing of the spacecraft equipped of original landing gear consisting of arm and cord at interaction with a landing surface is considered. The mathematical model of process is developed, motion stability research is executed. Comparison with a case of use of a conventional landing gear consisting of spring and damper is conducted.
