Damage Tolerance in Advanced Composites

By R. L. Sierakowski, Robert L. Sierakowski, R.L. Sierakowski

Book Overview

This recent book provides a detailed presentation of damage tolerance assessment and characterization methods for advanced composites, as well as an examination of the role of damage tolerance in the design of composites. Included are analytical models for different types of damage in different composite materials. Tables provide helpful reference data. Schematics illustrate materials constructions, aspects of damage, and damage evaluation techniques. A valuable aid in the evaluation and design of composites for damage resistance.
