연합인증

연합인증 가입 기관의 연구자들은 소속기관의 인증정보(ID와 암호)를 이용해 다른 대학, 연구기관, 서비스 공급자의 다양한 온라인 자원과 연구 데이터를 이용할 수 있습니다.

이는 여행자가 자국에서 발행 받은 여권으로 세계 각국을 자유롭게 여행할 수 있는 것과 같습니다.

연합인증으로 이용이 가능한 서비스는 NTIS, DataON, Edison, Kafe, Webinar 등이 있습니다.

한번의 인증절차만으로 연합인증 가입 서비스에 추가 로그인 없이 이용이 가능합니다.

다만, 연합인증을 위해서는 최초 1회만 인증 절차가 필요합니다. (회원이 아닐 경우 회원 가입이 필요합니다.)

연합인증 절차는 다음과 같습니다.

최초이용시에는
ScienceON에 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 로그인 (본인 확인 또는 회원가입) → 서비스 이용

그 이후에는
ScienceON 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 서비스 이용

연합인증을 활용하시면 KISTI가 제공하는 다양한 서비스를 편리하게 이용하실 수 있습니다.

The stratospheric-visit system according to claim 1 further comprising: a) coupling device for coupling said drogue parachute within the at least one payload;b) wherein said coupling device comprises a distance separating device for distance-separating said drogue parachute from the at least one payload; andc) wherein said distance separating device comprises a compressive-resistance control system for controlling compressive resistance of said distance separating device to assist the distance separation of said drogue parachute from the at least one payload;d) wherein controlling distance separation of said drogue parachute from the at least one payload is achieved. 3. The stratospheric-visit system according to claim 1 wherein said elongate carbon fiber rod has a c-shaped cross section for coupling the drogue stiffener around the bridle line for assisting prevention of tangling of said coupling device with the at least one payload. 4. The stratospheric-visit system according to claim 2 wherein said distance separating device comprises burble-confine penetrator means for assisting said drogue parachute to penetrate at least one burble confine during deployment of said parachute system. 5. The stratospheric-visit system according to claim 1 wherein said drogue parachute is stowed in a coiled configuration and is deployable by self springing into a linear and stiffened configuration. 6. The stratospheric-visit system according to claim 1 further comprising: a) coupling means for coupling said drogue parachute within the at least one payload;b) wherein said coupling means comprises distance separating means for distance-separating said drogue parachute from the at least one payload;c) wherein said distance separating means comprises compressive-resistance control means for controlling compressive resistance of said distance separating means to assist the distance separation of said drogue parachute from the at least one payload; andd) wherein controlling distance separation of said drogue parachute from the at least one payload is achieved. 7. The stratospheric-visit system according to claim 6 wherein said distance separating means comprises anti-tangling means for assisting prevention of tangling of said coupling means with the at least one payload. 8. The stratospheric-visit system according to claim 6 wherein said distance separating means comprises burble-confine penetrator means for assisting said parachute system to penetrate at least one burble confine during deployment of said parachute system. 9. A stratospheric-visit method, relating to a stratospheric visit using lighter-than-air travel, comprising the steps of: a) providing at least one payloadb) launching the payload;c) wherein the step of launching comprises the steps ofpropelling the payload with a lighter-than-air propulsion system, tethering, initially to ground, the lighter-than-air propulsion system, andun-tethering, from the ground, the lighter-than-air propulsion system;e) controlling travel, in the stratospheric visit, of the payload, wherein the payload reaches altitudes of at least 70,000 ft;f) communicating, during the stratospheric visit, with the payload; andg) recovering the payload;h) wherein the step of recovering comprises the steps of performing separation of the payload from the lighter-than-air propulsion system,using a deployed drogue parachute to decelerate the payload after the separation of the payload from the lighter-than-air propulsion system, wherein the drogue parachute comprises:a bridle line for coupling the drogue parachute to the payload; anda drogue stiffener coupled to the bridle line for stiffening an elongate portion of the bridle line to prevent entanglement of the bridle line with the payload during descent and to separate the payload from the drogue parachute; andfurther decelerating the payload with a parafoil wherein the parafoil is deployed at an altitude less than that at which the drogue parachute is deployed. 10.
