The composite material is made up of the combination of two or more constituent materials that have distinct chemical and physical properties. When two different materials are combined they often produce a material that has different characteristics from either of the individual components. Each component remains separate within the finished structure. There are two categories of these constituent materials, matrix and reinforcement. The matrix material is used to support and surround the reinforcement materials by maintaining their relative positions. The reinforcements enhance the matrix properties by their special mechanical and physical properties. At least one portion of each constituent material should be added in the composition. Composite materials are lighter, stronger and less expensive than the traditionally used materials. They are often used in the construction of bridges, buildings, and other structures such as boat hulls and racing car bodies. This book is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex advancements in the field of composite materials. Most of the topics introduced in it cover new techniques and applications of such materials. It is appropriate for students seeking detailed information in this area as well as for ex
