Introducing students to the most advanced aviation materials and technological processes that are used in the production of aircraft. Subjects like classic, composite, ceramic, hybrid,intelligent (smart) and functional materials and appropriate technology in the production of modern aircraft.

Students will be introduced to the procedure of abstract thinking and creative idea generation, technological developments in the methodology of new aircraft that are designed and based on a completely new and modern technological solutions.

Modern Aluminium, Nickel, Titanium and Beryllium alloys. Modern composite materials. Thermoplastic and thermoset materials in aviation. Synthetic resins - matrix (binder) materials: epoxy, polyester, vinyl ester-, phenolic, polyimide, etc. bizmaleimidne. Armirajuća fibers: glass, carbon, aramid and pine (Kevlar). Prepreg materials. Modern hybrreinforced. Reinforced materials. Composites based metal matrix. Modern ceramic materials. "Smart" and functional materials in modern aeronautical engineering. Piezoelectric materials, alloys with the possibility of "saving" shape. Intelligent composite actuators. Cellular materials, intelligent optical fibers. Electric, magnetic and semiconductor materials.

Verification, homologation and fatigue testing of aircraft structures that are performing at the Laboratory Institute of Aeronautical Department, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, the University of Belgrade.

No special conditions.

Require additional materials (handouts, setting assignments, term papers, etc..) Are given at the web site or reproduced on paper. Large-scale electronic materials can be made available to students in direct contact. Laboratory of Aeronautical Department, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, the University of Belgrade for verification, homologation and fatigue testing of aircraft structures.
