Study of Hypersonic Dissociating Flows over Spheres Using the Space-Time CE/SE Method

Over the last years, a renewed interest in manned missions to Mars has brought back attention to the field of hypersonic aerothermodynamics. Several space agencies as well as private companies are currently designing hypersonic vehicles (ZEHST by EADS and Dragon by Space Exploration Technologies Corporation) that, hopefully, will become the next generation of space vehicles.
