Analysis of the panel flutter characteristics of a candidate thermal protection system (TPS) for the space shuttle, using piston theory aerodynamics and Lagrange equations. The results show the TPS candidate panel array to be deep in the 'no-flutter' region during launch and, therefore, safe from panel flutter.
