Singapore University of Social Sciences

The course aims to provide you with a fundamental understanding of the material degradation such as corrosion, fatigue and creep deformation on the aircraft metal alloys. The students will be presented with the working knowledge on the common types of aircraft corrosion, the corrosion prevention and control measures that can be adopted during aircraft design and operations, the metal fatigue crack growth and creep deformation that can occur during operations, as well as methodologies to perform fatigue life prediction and crack growth analysis on aircraft structures.
