Cycles of pressurization and depressurization of the fuselage and gust disturbances are a few of the cyclic loads that aircrafts experience during flight. Aircrafts’ bodies are also subjected to corrosion as most airports are near huge seawater bodies. Aluminium alloy, the material for the skin of a...
