Course Content
Fabrication Processes of Composite Materials, Ply Properties (isotropy and anisotropy, characteristics of the reinforced-matrix mixture, unidirectional ply, woven fabrics, mats and reinforced matrices)
Objectives of the Course
There is a need by engineers working in composites for a practical source of reference for the design of composites. The demand from students and also practitioners of composites for knowledge and training in design of composites is increasing. This lesson fills that need. Students will able to learn design and manufacturing techniques of composite materials.
