[request_ebook] Composites Design Manual

图书介绍

The previous editions of 'Composites Design Manual' have enjoyed wide use in the composites industry throughout the world. Examples are included in both metric and imperial units.

The essential aspect of this book is practical information for the Engineer, Designer and Specifier to facilitata the design and procurement of GRP, CFRP and ARP composites. It provides product information on specific materials used in Glass fibre, Carbon and Aramid composites. Design, analysis properties and property prediction are covered in appropriate detail not found elsewhere. The chapter on economics of composites covers comparative performance of materials, the economics of the various processes and optimum fibre content.

The book doesn't attempt to be academic, many of the equations could be derived by an engineer but that would be time consuming and open to error. Hence the book collects together all those items of information, data and equations that are needed on a day-to-day basis.

The specifier of composites is also catered for as the book allows an increased understanding of what is possible and sensible, thus avoiding the specification of a property or shape that may be uneconomic.

Laminate analysis is specifically excluded as it would require a book to itself and is well covrered in several good texts. Nevertheless the user of laminate analysis will find this book a powerful aid to the design process.

In the 4th edition the opportunity has been taken to update in particular the chapters on materials and processes with the inclusion of information specific to particular processes. The assistance of suppliers of materials and equipment for the composites industry is gratefully acknowledged.
