Corrosion Issues and Solutions for Military and Aerospace Systems and Facilities - Session 1
Monday, March 17 - 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. This symposium contains technical papers that address corrosion issues associated with all types of military equipment, facilities, electronics, and infrastructure. Topics will cover (but are not limited to) aircraft, ground vehicles, tracked vehicles, artillery, other weapon systems, generators, permanent and temporary structures, water, steam, and natural gas distribution systems, roadways, bridges, etc. Particular focus will be placed on solutions to and/or detection of the corrosion issues.
