This book has one single purpose: to present the development of the partial hybrid finite element method for the stress analysis of laminated composite structures. The reason for this presentation is because the authors believe that partial hybrid finite element method is more efficient that the displacement based finite element method for the stress analysis oflaminated composites. In fact, the examples in chapter 5 of this book show that the partial hybrid finite element method is about 5 times more efficient than the displacement based finite element method. Since there is a great need for...

Composite materials are being used in more and more engineering applications. This has recently extended to uses in civil engineering such as tendons, rebar rods or as patch pieces for repair. In the light of the recent surge in research activity, CANCOM 91 served as an international forum for composites specialists.
