Abstract
During this session we are still considering engineering requirements but concentrating on aircraft - airframes, undercarriages, and engines. The aims of this conference were to bring engineers and metallurgists together, and to discuss the design requirements and how the various requirements lead to different priorities. There are unfortunately no simple cases. It is important to note that aircraft designers wish to increase the strength of materials as far as safety and reliability will allow. This is precisely what Rosenhain did in the past and I cannot overemphasize the importance of very close associations between engineers and metallurgists in the aviation business. We will therefore consider the designers requirements, how the metallurgist has been able to help in the past, and what is required in the future.
