Opis

This book will cover the subject of composites manufacturing providing the guidelines needed to manufacture composite parts. The author will explain where a particular fabrication technique fits within the manu facturing scheme and the processes needed for the manufacture of a par ticular component. The book can be used at the graduate level in the n ew courses springing up on this topic.

Recenzje

"Sanjay Mazumdar's book entitled Composites Manufacturing is intended to serve as a textbook for college students and/or a self-study took for engineers and professionals in the composites industry...The book is well written and illustrated, logically organized and easy to follow. This book is a welcome to my library and is recommended to the readers with interest in the manufacturing of composites."
-Jovan Mijovic, Professor, Polytechnic University

"…a very good book that provides a comprehensive coverage for many aspects of Manufacturing of Composites…For a newcomer, this book provides a good introduction into the many facets of Composites Manufacturing that needs to be known."
Professor Hoa, pioneer of the course on Composite Manufacturing, CompositesWeek

"…a wonderful checklist for those of us that have spent 30 years in the composite industry. It is a wonderful tool chest of knowledge that we all can use for review. This book is very much needed in the industry, to help train new people in the craft that most of us learned by the school of trial and error…I no longer see this book as it is being read by everyone around here…very impressed with this new book."
-John Turner, Senior Manufacturing Engineer at Hitco Carbon Composites, Inc.,

"A comprehensive guide to composites that encompasses aspects for design, manufacture, tooling, and cost considerations of this complex field for aerospace and commercial applications. This book is an excellent source of information for all disciplines, bringing together both introductory and advanced resources in one publication."
-Gerald E. Sutton, Vice President-RTM
Advanced Technical Products, Inc., Intellitec Division, DeLand, Florida, USA

"This book is suitable for a broad range of users. It focuses on the fundamental processes an engineer or program manager must address when planning to employ advanced composites into his or her project. The book encompasses the latest technology and design issues as composite design science matures."
-John Marks, Vice President and General Manager, COI Materials Inc., San Diego, California, USA

" …Provides a broad overview of the topics of composites manufacturing…Pulls together key references and provides guidelines to help navigate through this complex field…Covers many topics not often covered elsewhere, such as production planning, cost, and recycling…"
-Timothy Gutowski, Professor
Department of Mechanical Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA

"This is a good, basic introduction to the field of composites manufacturing and product development. The cost estimating and production planning chapters are very comprehensive. It contains many references to sources of more detailed information."
-Dr. John O. Taylor, Vice President, Engineering and R&D, Goodrich Corporation, Glacier Garlock Bearings Division, Thorofare, New Jersey, USA
