Abstract
Given the material properties of typical aircraft structures and environmental conditions experienced over a service life, corrosion in aircraft structures is a major issue. For the United States Air Force alone, the total annual cost for corrosion management is on the order of a billion dollars. Avoidance of even a small portion of this annual expenditure would result in significant savings. To improve the management of corrosion, limits of existing inspection tools must be addressed.
