DOWNLOAD EBOOKInvestigations of metal matrix materials reinforced with polycrystalline ceramic and metal fibers are reviewed. The results of parametric studies with model systems and of developmental studies with practical engineering materials are described, and an indication of the future potential of fiber-reinforced composites is presented. Model system studies have demonstrated the feasibility of strengthening metal matrices with continuous and discontinuous fibers. Fiber composite materials have been fabricated that follow a law-of-mixtures behavior at room and elevated temperatures for tensile and stress- rupture applications. The importance of fiber length-to-diameter ratios and orientation and of fiber-matrix bonding and interaction also have been indicated. Results achieved in preliminary attempts to produce engineering materials have been encouraging. The potential of fiber -reinforced metal composite materials is suggested by the excellent strength of materials currently available in fiber form. Increased fiber strength can be A" 33" achieved, which adds further to the advantage of composite materials

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFiber reinforced composite materials encompass a wide range of material classes from reinforced glasses, plastics, and rubbers through to more recently developed metals and ceramics. Fundamentals of Fibre Reinforced Composite Materials is a comprehensive and authoritative book that introduces the topic with a brief history of composite development, a review of composite applications, the types of fibre used, and their respective indiviual properties. An entire chapter considers organic matrices and their behavior, reviewing all of the most commonly encountered polymer matrix systems. Composite manufacturing techniques are then discussed, including those methods employed in the production of advanced metal and ceramic matrix composites. The remaining chapters are devoted primarily to theoretical treatments of composite behavior, with emphasis on the understanding of damage mechanisms such as cracking, delamination, and fibre breakage. Where a mathematical approach is required, an attempt is made to relate the sometimes rather abstract notions back at the structure of the material being discussed. With extensive sets of sample problems accompanying each chapter, Fundamentals of Fibre Reinforced Composite Materials is ideally suited to undergraduate and graduate students of materials science, structural, mechanical, and aeronautical engineering, polymer science, metallurgy, physics and chemistry. It will also be of use as a reference to researchers working with composite materials and material scientists in general.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn the last few years, a significant increase in applications of MMCs has taken place, particularly in the areas of automotive, aerospace, electronics, and recreation. These include continuous fiber reinforced MMCs for cables in power transmission, high temperature superconducting wires, particulate MMCs in civilian aircraft and automotive applications, and high volume fraction, high thermal conductivity substrates for electronic packaging. Nevertheless, as with any novel material systems, there is a lack of fundamental understanding on the part of practicing engineers and designers. This book would seek to address these issues, in a thorough and cohesive manner, as well as to provide students and scientists with a basic understanding of MMCs. This book will emphasize the synergistic relationships among processing, structure, and properties of metal matrix composites.
