Impact Characterization of Earth Entry Vehicle for Terminal Landing (on Soil)
In order to more accurately predict loads subjected to the EEV (Earth Entry Vehicle) upon impact with a variety of materials, finite element simulations of soil/EEV impact were created using the program LS-DYNA. Various modeling techniques were analyzed for accuracy through comparison with physical...
