The use of materials is an important aspect in all aspects of life. Aerospace engineers strive to design structures that can stay longer in air, without the need to constantly conduct checks on the integrity of the structure. All these changes can only be made possible by evaluating different materials and how the implementation of that material can improve its safety. All these high-tech processes of improving the material constitutes to its high cost, hence, the technology is heavily protected by the companies.
