Informationen zum Autor Samuel Benavides is a Senior Materials Engineer with the Aging Aircraft Branch of the US Coast Guard. Klappentext "With the aging of aircraft, corrosion control in the aerospace industry has become imperative. Rich in detail and analysis, Corrosion control in the aerospace industry provides a comprehensive review of his contemporary challenge with real-world perspectives and approaches to corrosion control and prevention." "Corrosion control in the aerospace industry should provoke aerospace professionals to reconsider and reevaluate their perceptions of corrosion, particularly in the dramatic light of a rapidly growing fleet of aging aircraft. The breadth and systematic nature of this book will make it attractive to aircraft designers, materials scientists, corrosion experts and anyone interested in the maintenance and daily operation of aircraft and aircraft safety."--BOOK JACKET. Zusammenfassung The first part of this important book reviews ageing aircraft and the cost of corrosion. A second group of chapters discuss corrosion fundamentals and part three examines corrosion monitoring! evaluation and prediction. A final section analyses methods of corrosion protection and prevention. Inhaltsverzeichnis Corrosion in the aerospace industry.
