Polymer matrix composites are used in a wide range of applications, from automotive parts and spacecraft components to chemical plant and offshore oil equipment. Written especially for professional engineers, this useful reference clearly explains how to design with these exciting materials. The elastic properties, residual stress, jointing, and environmental effects of polymers are among the topics covered in this very practical work, which emphasizes real situations by drawing upon numerous case studies. Readers will find thorough treatment of a full spectrum of design considerations, from empirical design to fracture mechanics, as well as guidelines for determination of material properties. A discussion of composite manufacture and a look at what the future holds are also included.
