Recent Advances in Composite Materials
Search in google:
A festschrift containing 31 papers presented at a June 2003 symposium on recent advances in composite materials held in Xanthi, Greece. Written by leading authors in the field, the papers are arranged in six sections: general concepts, stress and failure analysis, mechanical properties, metal matrix composites, structural analysis, and applications of composite materials. Some topics addressed include wave propagation in composites; perforation investigations of zylon sheets; ultrasonic stiffness matrix measurements of oxide/oxide composites; on a relationship between COD and strain energy density in a modern MMC; core failure of sandwich beams; and the strengthening of historic structures with advanced composites.
