Providing the main tools used for preliminary design of composites, this concise text covers all design aspects such as fiber and matrix selection, fabrication processes, prediction of material properties, and structural analysis of beams, plates, shells, and other structures.Powerful preliminary-design tools, such as "carpet plots," are used in examples throughout the book, and software, entitles Computer Aided Design Environment for Composites (CADEC), is provided, which includes all of the design equations.To download CADEC, visit Dr.Barbero’s book website Booknews A text for a one-semester, senior-level course for engineering students with no prior knowledge of composites. Applies structural analysis and design concepts learned earlier in the curriculum, such as the strength of materials, are used to illustrated the design of composite beams, plates, and shells. Emphasizes concepts rather than mathematical derivations, and applies design content throughout the coverage rather than relegating them to appendices.
