{"product_id":"failure-analysis-of-composite-materials-ramesh-talreja-9781032126883","title":"Failure Analysis of Composite Materials with Manufacturing Defects","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn contrast to metals, a composite material acquires an internal structure where the imprint of its manufacturing process history is a significant part of the internal structure's makeup and in many cases determines how the material responds to external impulses. The performance for which a composite material is designed must therefore be assessed with due consideration to the manufacturing-induced features in the material volume. Failure theories based on homogenized composites cannot deliver reliable methodologies for performance assessment. This book details approaches that depart from traditional treatments by accounting for manufacturing defects in composite materials. It discusses how manufacturing defects are produced and how they affect the performance of composite materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eServes as the only book to bring knowledge on manufacturing and failure modeling together in a coherent manner.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eGuides readers on mechanisms-based modeling with a focus on defects.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTreats statistical simulation of microstructure with defects aimed at physical modeling.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCovers manufacturing methods for polymer matrix composites.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDescribes failure modes in unidirectional composites and laminates in the presence of defects.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiscusses fatigue damage in the presence of defects.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at researchers in industry and academia in aerospace engineering, mechanical engineering, and materials science and engineering.
