Atmospheric re-entry refers to the complex interplay of aerothermodynamic structural and kinetic effects that occur when a spacecraft enters Earth’s atmosphere at orbital velocity. During re-entry the vehicle experiences high heat fluxes aerodynamic loads and dynamic pressures. Consequently re-entry technologies encompass multidisciplinary design optimizations aimed at reducing the spacecraft’s speed managing thermal loads preserving structural integrity and guiding it toward the intended landin
