Abstract

The significance and necessity of studying the effect of a wide range of factors on the behavior of composite materials and their ability to ensure reliability in the operating conditions of rocket and space technology elements are substantiated. The specificity of the structural features of composite materials, technological processes of their production and design of complex components, harsh conditions of preoperational tests, and extremity of thermal and power loads in the process of regular functioning determine the need for experimental studies of the effect of such factors on the current and residual physical and mechanical characteristics, as well as on the degree of their compliance in the actual design. The results of the development of a methodological and experimental base, practical implementation of programs, and analysis of the effect of factors of different natures on the behavior and characteristics of composite materials and actual structures made of them concerning a wide range of loading modes and types of stress states are presented. Examples of these developments are given in the following areas: obtaining the basic characteristics of composites for operating temperatures up to 3000 \({}^\circ \)C; analytical and experimental evaluation of the effect of ablation processes on the characteristics of composite materials; bench tests of models of thermal protection of rocket and space technology of single and reusable use and extremely thermally loaded elements of hypersonic aircraft.
