26 cze 2024 · The main groups of materials used in aircraft construction nowadays are steel, aluminum alloys, titanium alloys, and fibre-reinforced composites. Titanium alloys possess high specific properties, have a good fatigue strength/tensile strength ratio with a high fatigue limit, and some retain considerable strength at temperatures up to 400-500 C.

17 sie 2024 · Aluminum alloys, titanium alloys, and composite materials are the primary materials used in aerospace structures due to their high specific strength and stiffness, which can improve the payload, maneuverability, and endurance of aircraft while reducing flight costs.
From forests to 3D labs. In a little over a century, aircraft have gone from delicate constructions of wood, wire and fabric to high-speed, high-tech machines made from a complex mix of cutting-edge materials. We trace this dramatic progression and highlight Airbus’ role in driving it forward.
Today, bio-composites—made of raw materials of biological origin—are giving engineers new insight on how to improve the environmental performance of future aircraft. It may be hard to believe, but five decades ago, up to 70% of an aircraft was made of a single material: aluminium.
27 lis 2015 · Modern aircraft comprise three major components: airframe, propulsion, and systems. This article discusses materials and key design and manufacturing considerations for airframe and engine structures. The systems component, which provides power, control, and utilities, will not be addressed.
Aerospace materials are materials, frequently metal alloys, that have either been developed for, or have come to prominence through their use for aerospace purposes. These uses often require exceptional performance, strength or heat resistance, even at the cost of considerable expense in their production or machining.
This book offers a comprehensive look at materials science topics in aerospace, air vehicle structures and manufacturing methods for aerospace products, examining recent trends and new technological developments.
