Dimensional analysis of the inflation process of parachute canopies
The possibility of an experimental approach based on dimensional analysis is considered. Dimensional analysis of the filling of a parachute tied to a fixed support is given. The physical variables of the problem are discussed, and an attempt is made to retain for subsequent analysis of all those v...
