Advanced Aerospace Metals Deformation Technology

A brief summary of many contractual efforts being sponsored by the Air Force Materials Laboratory in an effort to solve metalworking problems that exist in the areas of sheet, tubing, forging, powder metallurgy, composites, extrusion, drawing, casting, and nondestructive testing is presented. The programs are concerned with such materials as high-strength alloys, refractory metal alloys, titanium alloys, dispersion strengthened alloys, and the superalloys.
