First Announcement: H.G. Heinrich Parachute Systems Short Course
June 4-8, 2012
Renaissance Portsmouth Hotel & Waterfront Conference Center
425 Water Street
Portsmouth, Virginia 23704
Course Objective:
The HG Heinrich Short Course presents a systems approach to the design and
engineering of parachute systems. The course will focus on the needs of
engineers from government and industry who monitor the development of
recovery systems and of engineers who design decelerator systems and oversee
their fabrication. Case studies of design of aerodynamic decelerators and
related components will be presented. Hands-on exercises on parachute
systems design will be assigned and discussed.
