About this Item

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Researchers are interested in the development of modeling methods applied to predicting the atomistic, microscopic and macroscopic response of composite materials under stress and hostile environment. Material behaviors at the macroscale level are controlled by their characteristics at lower scale levels. This fact is even more significant for composite materials. As a result, in order to design and analyze composite structures as well as new composite materials, it is necessary to model material behaviors at different length scales and to couple them. This book presents the state of the art in multiscale modeling and simulation techniques for composite materials and structures. It focuses on the structural and functional properties of engineering composites and the sustainable high performance of components and structures. The multiscale techniques can be also applied to nanocomposites which are important application areas in nanotechnology.This book will provide useful information for engineers for better design and analysis of composite structures. It will also serve as an invaluable reference for researchers. Seller Inventory # 9780387363189

It focuses on the structural and functional properties of engineering composites and the sustainable high performance of components and structures. The multiscale techniques can be also applied to nanocomposites which are important application areas in nanotechnology. There are few books available on this topic.

Review:

From the reviews:

"This book is built upon some papers written by several experts in the area of composite materials and structures. It contains 13 chapters with a very rich reference list. ... The book is well written, and the organization of various topics on composite materials is well established. This book will be useful for researchers working in the area of composites and structural modeling." (Hilmi Demiray, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1145, 2008)
