Hybrid and Hierarchical Composite Materials

ISBN-13: 9783319128672 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 356 str.

Chang-Soo Kim; Charles Randow; Tomoko Sano

Opis

This book addresses a broad spectrum of areas in both hybrid materials and hierarchical composites, including recent development of processing technologies, structural designs, modern computer simulation techniques, and the relationships between the processing-structure-property-performance. Each topic is introduced at length with numerous and detailed examples and over 200 illustrations. In addition, the authors present a method of categorizing these materials, so that representative examples of all material classes are discussed.
