Care and Repair of Advanced Composites

This reference for repair technicians and design engineers offers an in-depth look at the principal materials and processes involved in manufacturing, inspecting, and repairing advanced composite aircraft structures. The first edition of the book was written to meet the needs of composite repair technicians who repair aircraft components and structures for return to airline service. This second edition has been updated to keep pace with the growing use of composite materials in commercial aviation. Topics new to this edition include nondestructive inspection, fasteners for composite materials, and repair design. Armstrong has devoted his career to advanced composite aircraft structures.
