Synopsis

This updated and enlarged third edition of a widely used text offers an integrated and completely up-to-date coverage of composite materials. In addition to being updated, the third edition has a vast amount of new material including plenty of new exercises and illustrations, and new chapters on fatigue and creep of composites. Focusing on the relationship between structure and properties, the book provides a well-balanced treatment of the mechanics and the materials science of composites, while not neglecting the importance of processing. Extensive use is made of micrographs and line drawings to emphasize the importance of processing, microstructure, and properties in composite materials. Examples of practical applications in various fields are given throughout the book, and extensive references to the literature are provided.
