A novel numerical, finite element based analysis methodology is presented in this paper suitable for accurate and efficient simulation of practical, complex flight vehicles. An associated computer code, developed in this connection, is also described in some detail. Thermal effects of high speed flow obtained from a heat conduction analysis are incorporated in the modal analysis which in turn affects the unsteady flow arising out of interaction of elastic structures with the air. Numerical examples pertaining to representative problems are given in much detail testifying to the efficacy of the advocated techniques. This is a unique implementation of temperature effects in a finite element CFD based multidisciplinary simulation analysis capability involving large scale computations.
