Ashok Saxena, Distinguished Professor and dean of the College of Engineering at the University of Arkansas, is available to comment on cracks and metal damage to airplane fuselages. Saxena's research has focused on metal fatigue of aircraft materials and creep-fatigue interactions, which cause degradation in structural metals and may lead to sudden and catastrophic failure of critical parts.
