Composite Materials Workbook.

Abstract

This workbook is intended to present to the users of composite materials a set of tools to solve most commonly encountered problems in design and testing. Attempts are made to simplify both the operational and conceptual aspects. Subjects are selected from the standpoint of practical application rather than elegance. This workbook is unique in that it requires the student to work through many numerical problems immediately after the presentation of formulas. Programmable pocket calculators, preferably with magnetic card capability, are most suitable to perform the necessary calculations. In a separate volume, a number of the formulas in this workbook have been preprogrammed. The description, operating instruction, and program listing for these formulas have been compiled for Texas Instruments SR-52.
