Thermal Protection Modeling 1st Edition

Capture the science that shields spacecraft and hypersonic vehicles with Thermal Protection Modeling, 1st Edition by A.S. Yakimov — a crisp, authoritative guide for engineers, researchers, and graduate students tackling extreme heat environments.

Start by diving into clear explanations of heat transfer, ablation, and material response under reentry conditions. Yakimov blends theory with practical computational techniques, covering finite-element and finite-volume approaches, transient thermal analysis, coupled thermo-structural behavior, and numerical stability considerations. Each chapter connects mathematics to real-world problems, from heat-shield design to performance prediction under high-enthalpy flow.

This book stands out for its practical focus: it translates complex models into implementable workflows and outlines best practices for validating simulations against experimental and flight data. Whether you’re optimizing composite TPS, assessing thermal stresses, or developing predictive ablation models, you’ll find step-by-step guidance and clear examples that speed your learning curve and improve design confidence.

Ideal for professionals across global aerospace hubs — North America, Europe, Russia, India and Asia-Pacific — this edition supports multidisciplinary teams in industry, research labs, and academia. It’s also a valuable classroom resource for advanced thermal and aerospace engineering courses.
