Material reliability is a critical factor in flight safety. For this reason, engineers and materials scientists continuously work to enhance the strength of materials to cope with the harsh conditions and potential material failures encountered during flight. This book combines theoretical knowledge and case studies to examine the fundamental and most frequent failure modes in aircraft alloys and the root causes of failures. Key topics covered include wear deformation, fracture characteristics, fatigue failure, stress corrosion cracking and creep failure. Insightful case studies explore a…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
Material reliability is a critical factor in flight safety. For this reason, engineers and materials scientists continuously work to enhance the strength of materials to cope with the harsh conditions and potential material failures encountered during flight. This book combines theoretical knowledge and case studies to examine the fundamental and most frequent failure modes in aircraft alloys and the root causes of failures. Key topics covered include wear deformation, fracture characteristics, fatigue failure, stress corrosion cracking and creep failure. Insightful case studies explore a range of practical applications.

Failure in Aircraft Materials appeals to a broad readership in the aviation and aerospace industry, including students, engineers, scientists, and researchers. It serves as an indispensable reference source for material science and modern production techniques.
Autorenporträt
Selim Gürgen, Ph.D., is an Associate Professor with the Department of Aeronautical Engineering at Eski¿ehir Osmangazi University and the Director of Eski¿ehir Vocational School. He is an Executive Board Member of the ESOGU Aerospace Technologies Research Center. He was a visiting researcher at the University of Wollongong for a project on smart materials. He was at the University of Aveiro on natural composites, and worked as a researcher with the School of Transportation at Anadolu University for four years. Before his academic life, he worked as a manufacturing engineer in a joint venture of KMWE-Dutch Aero. Dr. Gürgen has contributed to several industrial and research projects in collaboration with major organizations such as Fiat Automobiles, Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI), and the Turkish Air Force. His projects were funded by the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TÜB¿TAK) and the European Union (EU). He has many publications in refereed international journals and conferences. He serves as an editorial member for several international journals. Dr. Gürgen is the co-editor of the book Materials, Structures, and Manufacturing for Aircraft (Springer, 2022) and editor of the books  Shear Thickening Fluid: Theory and Applications (Springer, 2023) and Shear Thickening Fluid: Case Studies in Engineering (Springer, 2023). His primary area of research is material science.
