Metallic materials for aircraft engineering

Abstract

Aircraft designers require materials which offer features and benefits that are specifically tailored to the aerospace industry. Much time, with huge expenditure, has been devoted since the Second World War by many special alloy producers to the development of alloys which provide high strength and corrosion resistance — often with low density — for aircraft components.
