## Description

Introduction to Composite Materials Design [Barbero, Ever J.] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Introduction to Composite Materials Design

Review: Excellent Introduction with Depth for Advanced Courses - I have used Dr Barbero's book ever since the first edition to teach composite materials design to senior undergraduates and Masters level graduate students because it was always readable and really covered the essentials of composite materials design. He has made significant improvements with each edition and expanded coverage of structural topics and laminate synthesis. With this edition, the text is thorough without being weighed down by too much theoretical development. His dramatic expansion of coverage of carpet plots for laminate design is particularly useful for undergraduates who are often overwhelmed by the task of starting a laminate design and then optimizing the layup. The later chapters provide good coverage of structural design issues well beyond lamination theory and permit graduate students to get their feet wet designing structures other than laminated plates. The text is clear, illustrations are relevant, and examples are quite helpful. Excellent text for advance undergraduate or introductory graduate composite design courses.
Review: Excellent book, well written, and easy to understand - This book is an excellent source for anyone that would like to learn about composite material design. The author is clearly an expert in the field and is able to convey his knowledge in meaningful text and examples. The book makes the complicated subject much easier to understand. I highly recommend this book!
