For this solution to become operational, a number of key technologies must be matured towards an appropriate level. In the frame of the EFESTO-2 project, structural and aerodynamic ground tests are planned to improve knowledge of this peculiar inflatable aerodynamic decelerator system. To reach this goal, a numerical study is carried out to simulate the maximum expected deformation level of the heat shield during the re-entry. Then, undeformed and deformed shapes of the heat shield are tested in the H2K and TMK wind tunnels. Post-test numerical rebuilding will follow this last step. This paper presents a pre-numerical investigation pointing out the definition of the test articles and the test campaigns, as well as post-numerical rebuilding with numerical-experimental cross-check.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/HiSST-2024-219.pdf\">Read the full paper here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><b>Ysolde PREVEREAUD, Yann DAUVOIS, Junnai ZHAI, Thomas GAWEHN, Giuseppe GUIDOTTI, Giuseppe GOVERNALE<\/b><\/p>\n<p>DOI Number: N\/A<\/p>\n<p>Conference number: HiSST-2024-219<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[993,1410,1407],"tags":[1744,1745,1746,1743],"class_list":["post-17095","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-events","category-high-speed-missions-and-vehicles-11-hisst-2024","category-11-hisst-2024","tag-hypersonic-re-entry-aerodynamics-and-aerothermodynamics","tag-inflatable-heat-shields","tag-numerical-rebuilding","tag-wind-tunnel-testing-2","category-993","category-1410","category-1407","description-off"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17095","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17095"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17095\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20782,"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17095\/revisions\/20782"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17095"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17095"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17095"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
