Properties for Composite Structures: Theory, Applications and Software
L N McCartney, Materials Division, NPL, UK
A comprehensive guide to analytical methods and source code predicting behaviour of undamaged and damaged composite materials
The book provides readers with all relevant theoretical information to help them understand the ways in which thermo-elastic properties of two phase and multi-phase composites can be estimated using consistent methods from properties of reinforcement and matrix, and from geometrical data, especially volume fractions, for both undamaged and damaged composites.
Properties for Composite Structures: Theory, Applications and Software focuses on the use of fibre properties that are transverse isotropic and the inclusion of the effects of thermal residual stresses. The book offers very useful explicit formulae and theoretical extensions that are not published in learned journals. Divided into four parts, the book covers: Principles, formulae for homogeneous materials and applications; Properties of undamaged composites; Properties of damaged composites; and Derivations of key results.
Key features:
Properties for Composite Structures: Theory, Applications and Software is an essential guide for designers of composite materials and composite engineering components.

Neil McCartney graduated with a PhD in Mathematics at Manchester University in 1968 and has spent the whole of his career at the National Physical Laboratory undertaking theoretical research associated with many aspects of materials science. He is currently an Emeritus Senior NPL Fellow. For many years he studied damage initiation and growth in unidirectional fibre reinforced composites and their laminates, with applications to multi-layered materials involving metals, ceramics and polymers. Current work undertaken includes modelling of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells, and of multi-layered piezoelectric systems subject to mechanical, thermal and electrical stimulation. He was Visiting Professor in the Dept. of Materials Science and Engineering, University of Surrey, March 1995 to 31 August 2010, and Visiting Professor in the Centre for Collaborative Research, The University of Tokyo, Japan, 1 February to 8 May 1999. He is a Fellow of the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications and a Chartered Mathematician.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. PROPERTIES FOR DESIGN OF COMPOSITE STRUCTURES A comprehensive guide to analytical methods and source code to predict the behavior of undamaged and damaged composite materials In Properties for Design of Composite Structures: Theory and Implementation Using Software, distinguished researcher Dr. Neil McCartney delivers a unique and insightful approach to the development of predictive methods for the properties of undamaged and damaged laminated composite materials. The book focuses on presenting compact analytical formulae for several important effective propertiesincluding mechanical, thermal, and electricalthat can be applied to a variety of reinforcement geometries. The author introduces a compact notation that enables an explicit treatment of laminate property determination, including the out-of-plane shear properties required for three-dimensional numerical simulations of structural features using finite and boundary element analyses. There is also a detailed consideration of ply crack closure and a useful study of the interrelationships between the effective thermoelastic constants of damaged laminates. The book also offers: A thorough introduction to the principles and formulae for homogenous materials and applications, including continuum and fracture concepts for homogeneous materials A comprehensive exploration of the properties of undamaged composites, including undamaged composite materials with multiple phases and the properties of a single undamaged lamina Practical discussions of the properties of damaged composites, including matrix cracking in UD composites and damaged laminates Consideration of effects of delamination, fatigue, and environmentally induced damage In-depth examinations of derivations of key results, including the analysis of bridged cracks and stress transfer mechanics for cross-ply and general symmetric laminates Perfect for composite design engineers in all types of material-supplying industries and manufacturing companies, Properties for Design of Composite Structures: Theory and Implementation Using Software will also earn a place in the libraries of undergraduate and graduate students in engineering, aerospace, and materials departments.
