 A. Viviani, G. Pezzella
Aerodynamic and Aerothermodynamic Analysis of Space
Mission Vehicles
Series: Springer Aerospace Technology

▶ Up-to-date reference material provided, to help prepare students for

aerospace industrial careers
▶ State of-art modelling and design techniques detailed
▶ Examples provided with detailed computations and results

Presenting an up-to-date view on the most important space vehicle configurations,

this book contains detailed analyses for several different type of space mission profiles
while considering important factors such as aerodynamic loads, aerodynamic heating,
vehicle stability and landing characteristics. With that in mind, the authors provide a
detailed overview on different state-of-the-art themes of hypersonic aerodynamics and
aerothermodynamics, and consider different space vehicle shapes useful for different
space mission objectives. These include:
