Advancements in Composite Materials Aand Their Applications in Engineering and Technology
Sukhwinder Singh Jolly
Abstract :
Among the major developments in materials in recent year are composite materials, as they offer several outstanding properties as compared to several conventional materials. Composite materials have found increasingly wide applications in aircraft, space vehicles, offshore structures, electronics, automobiles, boats, and sporting goods. New developments in composites are continually taking place with a wide range of polymeric, metallic and ceramic material being used both as fibers and matrix materials. Research and development activities in this area are concerned with improving strength toughness, stiffness, resistance to high temperature and reliability in service. Many composites materials are composed of just two phases; matrix and dispersed phase.
