Toughening Mechanisms in Composite Materials
was first published in May
2015. The book provided comprehensive and technically detailed coverage of composites and their toughening mechanisms. Unique in its direct and comprehensive approach, the book presented fundamental knowledge on compositesâ toughening mechanisms as well as comprehensive treatment of numerical methods.The field has however witnessed remarkable advances especially in the area of additive manufacturing, which has widened the range of advanced materials and the diversity of their applications.In this fully updated second edition, each chapter has been revised to take account of recent developments.A brand-new chapter has also been included on additive manufacturing of hierarchical composites and their corresponding characterization techniques. The book summarizes the current state-of-the-art and presents recent research outcomes. It details the development of each of the techniques, beginning with basic principles, and new concepts are illustrated with examples wherever possible.
