Summary "This second edition of Engineering Mechanics of Composite Materials has been revised, updated, and expanded based on advances in the field, the authors' research, and feedback received from users of the first edition." "This edition contains a more complete treatment of the fundamental theory, including three-dimensional effects; more emphasis on widely-used materials, such as textile composites; and a comprehensive yet practical presentation and discussion of failure theories and their applicability. Throughout, theoretical descriptions are compared with experimental results. The authors emphasize computational procedures and include flow charts for computations. The design methodology and optimization process for composite structures are described and illustrated with specific examples. One extensive chapter is devoted to experimental characterization and testing, including the latest test methods and ASTM standards. Instructional sample problems and solutions are included." "Engineering Mechanics of Composite Materials, Second Edition, is ideal for advanced undergraduate and introductory graduate courses on composite materials in materials science and mechanical engineering."--Jacket
