Updated and improved, Stress Analysis of Fiber-Reinforced Composite Materials, Hyer's work remains the definitive introduction to the use of mechanics to understand stresses in composites caused by deformations, loading, and temperature changes. In contrast to a materials scienc…
Tailored organic-inorganic materials
This book explores the limitless ability to design new materials by layering clay materials within organic compounds. Assembly, properties, characterization, and current and potential applications are offered to inspire the development of novel materials. Coincides with the gove…
The book deals with the famous query by Richard Feynman, "What would the properties of materials be if we could really arrange the atoms (molecules) the way we want them?" Feynman also wondered: "What could we do with layered structures with just the right layers?" The state of …
