Campbell F.C. Structural Composite Materials

ASM International, 2010. 629 p. — ISBN13: 978-1-61503-037-8, ISBN10: 0-61503-037-9.This book deals with all aspects of advanced composite materials; what they are, where they are used, how they are made, their properties, how they are designed and analyzed, and how they perform in-service. It covers both continuous and discontinuous fiber composites fabricated from polymer, metal, and ceramic matrices, with an emphasis on continuous fiber polymer matrix composites.About the Author
