source for scientists and technologists in the field of composites
research. The six volumes covers key aspects of naturally occurring
and synthetic composite materials, including history, reinforcements,
matrix materials, mechanical properties, physical properties, theory,
structural design, structural analysis, manufacturing processes, quality
assurance, test methods, applications, recycling and disposal. Classes
of materials covered include polymer matrix composites, metal matrix
composites, ceramic matrix composites, carbon/carbon composites,
and cement and concrete composites. Comprehensive Composite
Materials also covers smart materials as they relate to composites,
including process monitoring, embedded sensors and actuators, and
damage detection.

Volume 1: Fiber Reinforcements and General Theory of Composites
Summary
This volume begins with an introduction in Chapter 1 by the Editors-in -Chief. They provide an outline of the scope and content of the Work as well
as a historical perspective of composite materials. The bulk of the Volume is devoted to two basic aspects of composites: reinforcement materials
(Chapters 2 -12) and general theories (Chapters 13 -25).
The coverage of reinforcement materials focuses mostly on fiber materials, with one chapter reviewing reinforcements in the form of whiskers and
particulates. Extensive presentations of the state of fiber technology and their performance are given for carbon fibers (polyacrylonitrile and pitch
based), boron fibers, silicon carbide fibers (manufactured by chemical vapor deposition) and organometallic pyrolysis), oxide fibers, aramid fibers, glass
fibers, high density polyethylene fibers, polyamide and polyester fibers, and natural organic fibers.
The coverage of general theories begins with the morphological characterization, and the thermo-elastic and inelastic behaviors of continuous and
discontinuous fiber composites. They form the basis of treatment for lamination theory, and wave propagation in composite plates and shells. These
are then followed by detailed reviews of strength analysis, with a particular emphasis on the statistical approach. The Volume ends with a treatment
of the fracture and toughening mechanisms, and the mechanics of textile structural composites.

Volume 2: Polymer Matrix Composites
Summary
This volume deals with properties and manufacturing processes of composites with polymeric matrices. Comprehensive treatment is given to properties
of thermosetting resins, thermoplastics and elastomers, and composite systems based on these. Individual chapters are devoted to glass fiber
reinforced plastics, carbon fiber reinforced plastics, aramid fiber reinforced plastics, high density polyethelene composites, hybrids and sandwiches,
and particulate and short -fiber composites. The mechanisms of deformation and failure that are characteristic of these composite systems are then
treated in separate chapters on viscoelasticity and aging, moisture uptake, matrix cracking, delamination and fatigue. Since the properties of
composites are closely related to microstructure, an extensive treatment of microstructural characterization is given.
Depending on the application and the polymeric matrix, thermoset or thermoplastic, a wide range of manufacturing processes exist. Following an
overview of the manufacturing processes, the impregnation and consolidation processes as well as preparation of semifinished products are treated.
Individual chapters are devoted to prepregging and autoclaving, and open mold, compression molding, liquid impregnation and continuous molding
techniques. The practical aspects of joining, machining and repair of composites are then treated. Finally, a variety of topics of importance to
industrial application of composites, such as selection of manufacturing routes and life cycle considerations are discussed.

Volume 5: Test Methods, Nondestructive Evaluation and Smart Composites
Summary
Volume 5 deals with three distinct topics: Testing of Composite Materials, Nondestructive Evaluation of Composite Materials, and Smart Composites.
Each section consists of several chapters that treat contemporary topics in each of these topical areas. These chapters were written by experts in
each technical area and each addresses problems associated with the design, testing, inspection, and usage of composite materials. While the
preponderance of examples is based on polymer matrix composites, the techniques discussed are applicable to both metal and ceramic matrix
materials.
These articles represent the state-of -the -art at the end of the 20 th century. Many examples come from research and engineering on military
systems, but the applications of composite materials to consumer goods are discussed where possible. To be useful for future readers, each author
has provided extensive reference material at the end of each chapter. One particular area that deserves note is the recent incorporation of
microelectronic devices into composite structures, giving them electronic functionality. This is of particular significance to the section on smart
materials since in situ sensing, processing and activation, will provide new classes of composite materials whose capability is not yet completely
visualized.
