Abstract

Research related to rivets and dimples has been conducted as early as the 1930s. The irregularities of surfaces have believed to be a factor to fuel consumption increase of airplanes. NASA reported that it is vital to eliminate the surface irregularities or other protuberances from the surface that is exposed to the airflow [1]. This is believed to due to the extreme increase of the drag coefficient.
