Introduction to Composite Materials Design

Providing the main tools used for preliminary design of
composites, this concise text covers all design aspects such as fiber and
matrix selection, fabrication processes, prediction of material properties, and
structural analysis of beams, plates, shells, and other structures.





Powerful preliminary-design tools, such as "carpet plots," are used
in examples throughout the book, and software, entitles Computer Aided Design
Environment for Composites (CADEC), is provided, which includes all of the design
equations.
