Abstract The aim of the present work is to provide a first attempt to set an aero-thermo-elastic methodology for deployable atmospheric re-entry decelerators operating at high Mach number and high dynamic pressure. Because of the severity of re-entry conditions such as high temperatures, high pressures and high velocities, the behavior of their flexible structures is a hard target to assess. In this paper a partitioned Fluid Structure Interaction (FSI) approach based on the integration of different commercial software (STAR-CCM+ and ABAQUS) is presented. In order to validate the specific codes and the overall strategy for structural and fluid dynamics analyses of… More >
