Evaluating the Effectiveness of Aluminum Coatings on Patch-Repaired Composites Using Electro-Thermal Analysis

Evaluating the Effectiveness of Aluminum Coatings on Patch-Repaired Composites Using Electro-Thermal Analysis

Lightning-induced ablation can severely compromise the structural integrity of composite materials. While metallic coatings have been widely studied for lightning protection, this study focuses on a different application—applying aluminum coatings to repaired composite materials. The goal is to addr...
