Aviation Materials for High School

The document discusses materials used in aircraft construction. It provides an overview of common materials like aluminum alloys, composite materials, and high-strength steel alloys. Composite materials like carbon fiber reinforced polymers are increasingly used in aircraft due to their high strength to weight ratio. The document also reviews the history and development of newer materials like aluminum-lithium alloys and GLARE, a composite material made of alternating layers of metal and composite. Selection of materials depends on factors like an aircraft's intended use, costs considerations, and the need to balance strength, durability and weight.
