Abstract:A strain isolation pad is a critical connection mechanism that enables deformation coordination between the rigid thermal insulation tile and the primary structure in the thermal protection system of a reusable hypersonic vehicle. An experimental investigation has been conducted to determine the static, loading–unloading, and high-cycle fatigue (HCF) responses of the SIP with 0.2 mm adhesive under through-thickness tension at room temperature. The contributions of the rigid thermal insulation tile and metallic… Show more
