Opis

As the use of composite materials has become widespread in recent years quality control in their manufacture has become essential. This book is the first compilation of the quality control methods used in industry and academia. This is essentially a practical book, accessible to anyone working in - or wanting to know more about - quality control in composite material manufacture.

Recenzje

The composites industry has a lack of suitable texts compared with other areas of technology and this comprehensive bringing together of standards and tests in one volume is to be welcomed heartily - Manufacturing Engineer
