商品簡介
The Mechanical Behavior of Fiber-reinforced Polymer Composites: Fundamentals, Advanced Studies, and Current Trends provides a detailed review of important developments in this field. The book covers fundamental principles, materials, manufacturing processes, and testing methodologies. The fundamental principles that are discussed focus on the mechanical properties of polymers and fibers, emphasizing their interactions and resulting behavior in composite materials. Detailed discussion is given on various mechanical testing methods used to characterize fiber-reinforced composites, including tensile, compression, flexural, impact, and fatigue testing. The book investigates the significance of fiber orientation in composites and how different manufacturing processes can affect the alignment of fibers, subsequently impacting mechanical properties. Failure mechanisms including delamination, matrix cracking, and fiber breakage are discussed in detail. The book also covers aging effect in outdoor environment applications, as well as numerical analysis, modelling, and artificial intelligence. The book will serve as a comprehensive reference for researchers, and other professionals interested in gaining in-depth knowledge about the mechanical aspects of these materials, offering essential insights into their structural integrity and their diverse range of applications.
