  • Abstract
    In this paper, the key influences of lunar lander landing model are illuminated systematic. Then the touchdown dynamic model of lunar module is built. And the simulation model for lunar landing described on ADAMS is discussed. As an example, one kind of lunar module model with four cantilever truss style landing gear is built by ADAMS and the simulations are focused on the influences on landing by the characteristics of buffers in primary and secondary struts of the landing gear. The conclusions can be used for the design of lunar lander.
