Eddy Current Imaging Technique for Quantitative Analysis of Defects in Aircraft Components
Abstract: Aircraft industry’s concern is primarily in the area of safety of components and structures and it is extremely important to constantly evaluate and monitor the structures and systems for defects and anomalies noninvasively, thereby preventing unplanned outages and shutdowns as also catastrophes. To accomplish this, different nondestructive testing techniques have been in use since decades. Each technique is unique by itself and has its associated advantages and limitations; a suitable …

On the Universal Equation of Elasticity and the Universal Equation of Thermo-elasticity for Next-generation Aircrafts and Spacecrafts
Abstract: In the present investigation, the theories of “Relativistic Elasticity” and “Relativistic Thermo-Elasticity” are proposed for the design of the new-generation large aircraft with turbojet engines and speeds in the range of 50,000 km/h and for the new-generation spacecraft of any speed. Such theories show that there is a considerable difference between the absolute stress tensor and the stress tensor of the moving frames even in the range of speeds of …
