Verification of the Icarus Material Response Tool
Due to the complex physics encountered during reentry, material response solvers are used for two main purposes: improve the understanding of the physical phenomena; and design and size thermal protection systems (TPS). Icarus, is a three dimensional, unstructured material response tool that is intended to be used for design while maintaining the flexibility to easily implement physical models as needed. Because TPS selection and sizing is critical, it is of the utmost importance that the design tools be extensively verified and validated before their use. Verification tests aim at insuring that the numerical schemes and equations are implemented correctly by comparison to analytical solutions and grid convergence tests.

Tether Technology Interchange Meeting
This is a compilation of 25 papers presented at a tether technical interchange meeting in Huntsville, AL, on September 9-10, 1997. After each presentation, a technical discussion was held to clarify and expand the salient points. A wide range of subjects was covered including tether dynamics, electrodynamics, space power generation, plasma physics, ionospheric physics, towing tethers, tethered reentry schemes, and future tether missions.
