Materials Performance is the world's most widely circulated magazine dedicated to corrosion prevention and control. MP provides information about the latest corrosion control technologies and practical applications for every industry and environment.
MATERIALS SELECTION & DESIGN Corrosion Sensor Systems for Aircraft Applications
the aircraft maintainers, aircraft manu- facturers, and sensor developers on the same development team. Additional steps that can speed the implementation of corrosion sensors include: 1) common DoD procedures and data formats for sensor evaluations, 2) data/information sharing hubs for sensor developers, 3) apples-to-apples comparisons of sensor approaches, 4) demonstration platforms and projects for qualifying approaches IVL Y]IV\QNaQVO KW[\ JMVMÅ\[ IVL QV- tegrated sensor technology roadmaps for key organizations.
