Processing of Composites

Composites have been acclaimed to be the "Materials of the Future," Advanced polymer composites, once destined for stealth military aircraft or aerospace uses, are beginning to be used in down-to-earth structures such as bridges, building and highways. The objectives of this book are to provide a quick overview of the fundamental principles underlying composite processing and to summarize the most important processes for composite manufacturing. This book is particularly valuable for students as a graduate-level textbook and practitioners who struggle to optimize these processes.
