Description
"Supersonic Effects on Rivets introduces aerospace components, such as rivets, used in subsonic and supersonic/hypersonic aircraft. It investigates th
...
e various alloys used to manufacture rivets/fasteners and the heat treatment of those alloys. Providing background on supersonic/hypersonic aircraft, the book discusses selecting materials, rivet arrangement, skin friction/drag effects, estimating temperature, thermal properties, and fatigue testing of aerospace rivets. It includes real-world case studies on aircraft failures due to incorrect design and failure mechanisms of aerospace rivets. The book will be useful for practicing aerospace/aeronautical engineers, materials scientists, and metallurgical engineers"--
