Introduction to Composite Products

A practically-orientated book covering the important factors in producing composite products, using an analysis of the design process and linking it with key areas of composites theory and practice. Emphasis is given to commercial realities and to the part a composites practitioner can play in the overall design, development and manufacture processes. Reference to real life situations is made. The text includes material on NDT and other quality assessment techniques, and important practical hints and tips for troubleshooting. This work should be of interest to technicians, project leaders, designers and product developers in the composite industry; students doing composite options on their courses.
