For its complexity, numerical model of the inflation process is a big challenge, and most of the modelsestablished before still have room for improvement. There were two common problems that the first one was ignoranceof inertia force of canopy and line, and the second was that took stretch speed as the initial airdrop speed in modelling.Thus, a modified finite element model for canopy inflation process based on ALE (Arbitrary Lagrange Euler) method wasestablished that the inertia force of canopy and line was taken into consideration and the initial airdrop speed wasestimated and adjusted. The opening load in finite mass situation during deployment-inflation process of C-9 typeparachute was calculated. The result was compared to experimental data and calculated data of unmodified models. Itwas indicated that the opening load and peak time of modified model was the closest to experiment and the snatch loadwas also calculated and confirmed, so that the correctness and rationality of the model was verified. Then the factorinfluence of inertia force and initial airdrop speed was analysed, which provided a reference for parachute numericalmodelling.}, number = {06}, urldate = {2020-12-31}, journal = {Industria Textila}, author = {Chen, Chen and Guo, Qilei and Sun, Peng}, month = dec, year = {2020}, pages = {515--518}, }
