The project aims to design, integrate and verify a robust and lightweight thermal shield solution for atmospheric earth re-entry. The main advantage of a hybrid heat-shield is based on the capability of the thin ablative top layer to bear high thermal loads, while the tough ceramic composite underneath provides structural support. %K Thermal Protection Systems %K Atmospheric Re-entry %K Ablative materials %K Ceramic Matrix Composites doi 10.2514/6.2014-2373 %U http://hdl.handle.net/11556/380 %~ GOEDOC, SUB GOETTINGEN
