Analysis of several forms of ideal energy dissipating mechanisms to control soft landing capability of spacecraft on earth, lunar or planetary surfaces; analysis synthesizes weight or mass index in terms of pertinent design indices, structural efficiency, and material efficiency parameters; primary design index is touchdown velocity, whereas secondary design index is associated with payload fragility in terms of deceleration and onset rate limitations; various forms of cylindrical shell dissipators such as buckled and frangible tubes and pressurized membranes and shells are compared to establish their relative efficiencies.
