The Effect Of High Altitude Environments On The Dislocation Structure Evolution During Fatigue Cracking Of Legacy And Next Generation Aerospace Aluminum Alloys
Abstract
The objective of this research is to study effects of high altitude environments (low temperatures and low vapor pressures) on fracture and fatigue mechanisms of metallic and composite materials used in aircraft structures. In specific, it will study at crack initiation and propagation physics at a multi-scale levels (macro and micro scales).
