By Brian Cantor,Fionn .P.E Dunne,Ian C Stone

With contributions from best specialists of their respective fields, steel and Ceramic Matrix Composites presents a finished assessment of themes on particular fabrics and tendencies. it's a topic on a regular basis integrated as a last 12 months alternative in fabrics technology classes and is additionally of a lot business and educational curiosity.

The booklet starts with a variety of chapters describing the commonest advertisement functions of composite fabrics, together with these within the aerospace, automobile, and tool new release industries. part 2 outlines production and processing tools utilized in the construction of composite fabrics starting from uncomplicated aluminium matrix composites, via particle bolstered composites, to composites utilizing novel matrix fibres akin to titanium-silicon carbide and ceramics. part three is dedicated to the mechanical behaviour of alternative matrix fabrics and structure-property kinfolk, with specific cognizance paid to failure and fracture mechanisms. the ultimate part considers these new fibres and composite fabrics at present in improvement, together with excessive energy copper composites, porous particle composites, energetic composites, and ceramic nanocomposites.
