Opis

This pioneering book presents new models for the thermomechanical behavior of composite materials, taking into account internal physico-chemical transformations such as thermodecomposition, sublimation, and melting at high temperatures. It collects unique experimental results on mechanical and thermal properties of composites at temperatures up to 2000C.

Recenzje

`... well-organized... will be a welcome addition to the literature for those scientists and engineers faced with the challenge of designing advanced composite materials for use at high temperatures.'
