PRESENTS THE LATEST STRATEGIES IN THE DEVELOPMENT AND USE OF COMPOSITE MATERIALS FOR LARGE STRUCTURES AND THE EFFECTS OF DEFECTS Composite Structures: Effects of Defects offers an important guide to the use of fiber-reinforced composites and how defects can affect the durability and safety of engineering structures such as aircraft, bridges, wind turbines and sporting equipment. The text draws on the authors' experience in industry and academia to cover the most recent strategies in the development of composite structures and uniquely integrates the assessment of the effects of defects introduced during production and service. This comprehensive resource begins with an essential introduction to the characteristics of composites leading to an in-depth discussion of defects encountered in production. The authors review current manufacturing methods and inspection techniques used for composite structures and methods to test and analyze their strength and behavior in the presence of manufacturing flaws and service impacts. The text also contains information on the latest regulatory requirements and design standards associated with the testing and validation of a robust design. This important resource: * Presents basic information on composite structural design and failure theories * Reviews the most current manufacturing methods and inspection technologies * Includes testing strategies for determining the effects of production defects and service damage * Contains methods for statistical analysis and processing of experimental effects of defects test data * Offers a comprehensive review of the most current regulatory developments in the use of composites for the construction of aircraft composite structures Written for professional engineers in mechanical, automotive, aerospace, civil, and energy engineering, Composite Structures: Effects of Defects is the hands-on text that covers the essential information needed to understand the use of composites and how manufacturing flaws and service damage impact structural behavior.
