Advanced Materials for Aerospace Applications

Advances in material science, especially in composite technology, allowed the development of promising new materials for aerospace engineering to reduce fuel consumption and to improve safety and performance. Composites, nonmaterial, and artificially engineered materials made a breakthrough in aerospace engineering by reducing the size and improving the performance. Although several applications are there in the aerospace sector, the emphasis of the review is on applications of these advanced materials as stealth materials where they will reduce the aircraft signature both in microwave regime and in IR regime.
