Abstract

A mathematical model of space motion of a mechanical system that consists of a load and a parachute is presented. With the help of the apparatus of the Lyapunov functions, a particular case of the model is studied when the load can be considered as a mass point that does not have resistance. A sufficient condition of stability is obtained. The results can be applied to the model/ing and construction of parachute systems.
