Handbook of Composite Materials and Structures [Hardcover]

The materials like mortars, metal composites, reinforced plastics, ceramic composites, concrete, etc. are the materials made by combining two different materials together to produce a third material which possesses properties and characteristics which are different from both its parent material. These new prepared materials are called composite materials. They are often more strong or light, or cheaper. This book is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex theories and principles in the field of composite materials and their structure. The textbook is meant for students who are looking for an elaborate reference text on this field.The materials like mortars, metal composites, reinforced plastics, ceramic composites, concrete, etc. are the materials made by combining two different materials together to produce a third material which possesses properties and characteristics which are different from both its parent material.
