Scale-bridging molecular dynamics simulations of plasma-surface interactions
… craft. We specifically examine the ablation of AVCOAT, which is a composite thermal protection system (TPS) material attached to the leading edge of the Orion multi-purpose crew vehicle. Phenol formaldehyde resin used as the matrix material in AVCOAT is modeled and its pyrolysis kinetics are …

Uncertainty quantification of vista charring ablator material database using Bayesian inference
During hypersonic trajectory through a planetary atmosphere a high heat flux environment is generated due to the friction between gas particles and the vehicle. To protect it from the excessive heat energy that is transferred to it, Thermal Protection Systems are implemented in the spacecraft’s …
