Synopsis
The last decade has seen a significant growth in the processing and fabrication of advanced composite materials. This volume contains the up-to-date contributions of those with working experience in the automotive, marine, aerospace and construction field.
Starting with modern technologies concerned with assessing the change in material microstructure in terms of the processing parameters, methodologies are offered to account for tradeoffs between the fundamental variables such as temperature and pressure that control the product quality. The book contains new ideas and data, not available in the open literature.

The series, Engineering Application of Fracture Mechanics, emphasizes the applications of fracture mechanics technology that can be employed to assure the safe behavior of engineering products and structures. This volume contains papers presented at an international symposium held at the Politecnico di Torino, Italy, in May 1993. Eight sessions address: curing, bonding, and modeling; composite fabrication technology; structural behavior of composites; composite beams and plates; interfaces and fracture; damage and fracture; thermoplastic composites; and joint, airframe, and engine.
