Course Purpose and Content

Course Objectives: To inform about the materials used in civil and military aviation and unmanned aerial vehicles. To evaluate the material diversification changing with technology and to introduce material certifications suitable for use in aviation.
Course Content: This course is concerned with the development and production of materials in aviation and space applications, and especially aerospace engine materials. The course also covers the use of smart and functional materials in aerospace applications. Students learn theoretical approaches to developing new materials, improving existing materials, and integrating different materials into new applications.

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
1) Will be able to explain the relationship between design and material selection and material selection criteria in aviation.
2) Will be able to explain general aviation materials, the properties of these materials used in design, and the manufacturing and fabrication methods of the materials.
2) Will be able to select appropriate surface treatments for materials according to service conditions and comment on the properties and selection criteria of coatings.
3) By knowing the concept of special processes, they will be able to comment on their effects on material properties.
3) By explaining the types of destructive and non-destructive testing, students will be able to decide on the appropriate method to detect errors.
