Fundamentals of
Aircraft Material Factors
by Charles E. Dole
Accident analysis through the understanding of structural and materials failure
Fundamentals of Aircraft Material Factors by Charles Dole: A technical book written for those interested in aircraft accident analysis. This book covers the physical properties of metals and composite structures and is designed to help investigators and others determine the causes of accidents in which material failure is involved. To make a meaningful analysis of an aircraft mishap, the investigator should have a sound knowledge of the engineering principles involved in the design, construction, maintenance, and operation of aircraft.
