Motion trajectory is the fundamental basis for the design and research of parachute. The fall state, the minimum safe altitude and airborne site are closely associated with the motion trajectory. Particularly due to rapid changes in these parameters such as canopy shape, velocity, dynamic load of the parachute, it is very difficult to determine the motion trajectory of parachute inflation process. Currently, the trajectory is mainly obtained by airdrop tests or wind tunnel tests. The tests are very expensive. Based on the force analysis and mathematical model of a certain type of parachute, we used the computer system to study the motion trajectory of parachute.
