Failure of Fibre-Reinforced Polymer Composites. This item is unavailable.Failure of Fibre-Reinforced Polymer Composites

The proposed book focusses on the theme of failure of polymer composites, focusing on vital aspects of enhancing failure resistance, constituents and repair including associated complexities. It discusses characterization and experimentation of the composites under loading with respect to the specific environment and applications. Further, it includes topics as green composites, advanced materials and composite joint failure, buckling failure, and fiber-metal composite failure. It explains preparation, applications of composites for weight sensitive applications, leading to potential applications and formulations, fabrication of polymer products based on bio-resources.

Provides exhaustive understanding of failure and fatigue of polymer composites

Covers the failure of fiber reinforced polymer composites, composite joint failure, fiber-metal composite, and laminate failure

Discusses how to enhance the resistance against failure of the polymer composites

Provides input to industry related and academic orientated research problems

Represents an organized perspective and analysis of materials processing, material design, and their failure under loading

This book is aimed at researchers, graduate students in composites, fiber reinforcement, failure mechanism, materials science, and mechanical engineering.
