Mallick P. K.

Focusing on problem solving and practical details, , Fiber-Reinforced Composites: Materials, Manufacturing, and Design, Third Edition presents special test methods, manufactures processes, and design practices that have been developed for students and working mechanical engineers. This third edition highlights new applications, adds a chapter on carbon nanocomposites, and supplies additional problems in each chapter. The chapter on materials now features a section on natural fibers, while the chapter on performance contains new test methods on interlaminar fracture measurements. The text also provides more information on resin transfer molding, as well as new design examples.
