Polymer Composites in the Aerospace Industry, Second Edition, summarizes the latest research and developments on the design, manufacture and performance of composite components for aerospace structures. Sections cover the modeling, structure and behavior of 2D and 3D woven composites, the manufacture processes used for composite materials and components, buckling and compressive strength of laminates and manufacturing defects in composite materials, aspects of composite performance in aerospace structural design, including chapters on modeling stiffness and strength of structural elements, fatigue under uniaxial and multiaxial loads, fracture mechanics, impact strength and fatigue, crashworthiness, design and failure analysis of bolted joints, and much more. This updated edition is an essential reference resource for engineers, scientists and designers working in the development of composite materials in aerospace applications.
"The revised Second edition of the book summarises the latest research and developments in the design, manufacture and performance of composite components for aerospace structures. The 19 contributions from the leading experts in the field are grouped into three parts. Each contribution is generously illustrated with figures, tables and diagrams, some of which are printed in colour, with extensive references and sources of further information and advice. The book provides a valuable reference resource for engineers, scientists and designers working in the development of composite components in the aerospace industry and will undoubtedly help them develop better understanding of the latest research advances in the field." --The Aeronautical Journal
