摘要

This study examines the landing dynamics of a reusable launch vehicle (RLV) equipped with landing legs. Using ADAMS, a commercial multi-body dynamics software, various landing simulations were conducted. The RLV's core stage and landing legs were modeled as rigid bodies with spring-dampers. Simulations were performed under different conditions, varying landing velocities (V), landing angles (θL), attitude angles (θA), and the number of landing legs. Landing success was evaluated based on predefined criteria. The study specifically focused on three- and four-leg landing configurations, analyzing the relationship between successful landings and landing velocities/angles. The maximum landing velocity for a successful landing was determined for landing angles of 0° and 5°. Additionally, for a landing velocity of 5 m/s, the successful landing ranges for both the landing angle and core stage attitude angle were identified for each configuration.
