Download or read book Machining of Titanium and Nickel Alloys for Aerospace Applications written by Mark J. Jackson and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-10 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reviews the machining of titanium and nickel-base alloys, which are employed extensively in the aerospace industry, and provides examples of their use. Providing much-needed information on the manufacturing properties of today’s new materials, especially those being developed for use in aeronautical vehicles such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), it features a collection of chapters written by leading international experts in the field. It has been written in response to the request by manufacturers such as Boeing, Cessna, Spirit Aerosystems, Rolls-Royce, Pratt and Whitney, GE Aviation, United Technologies, Textron, General Atomics, and Northrup Grumman for specific, practical data to help them produce the next generation of aircraft. This single volume reviewing the state of the art in machining technology for aerospace applications is of great interest to researchers. It is also a valuable resource for professional engineers, helping them address the problems associated with difficult-to-machine aerospace alloys.
