This book is designed to meet the above needs as a teaching textbook and as a self-study reference. It only requires knowledge of undergraduate mechanics of materials, although some knowledge of elasticity and especially anisotropic elasticity might be helpful.Introduction
Basic Concepts and Characteristics
Elastic Behavior of Unidirectional Lamina
Strength of Unidirectional Lamina
Elastic Behavior of Multidirectional Laminates
Hygrothermal Effects
Stress and Failure Analysis of Multidirectional Laminates
Experimental Methods for Characterization and Testing of Composite Materials
