Anthony Pickett undertook postgraduate research in FRP composites at the University of Surrey and RAE Farnborough, followed by nearly twenty-five years industrial work as scientific director with ESI GmbH developing and applying FE codes for process and mechanical simulation of metal and composite structures. From 2002 he was a professor in the composites group at Cranfield University and since 2007 has continued research and teaching of advanced composites at IFB (Institute of Aircraft Design) at the University of Stuttgart. The contents of this book are largely based on teaching material presented to master's level students over the past fifteen years. He is a fellow of the Institute of Mechanical Engineers and the Institute of Materials, and a chartered engineer in the UK, with many publications and several book chapters related to process, impact and crash modelling of composites.
