Composite Materials
The fourth edition of Krishan Chawla's widely used textbook, Composite Materials, offers integrated and completely up-to-date coverage of composite materials. The book focuses on the triad of processing, structure, and properties, while providing a well-balanced treatment of the materials science and mechanics of composites. In this edition of Composite Materials, revised and updated throughout, increasing use of composites in industry (especially aerospace and energy) and new developments in the field are highlighted. New material on the advances in non-conventional composites (which covers polymer, metal and ceramic matrix nanocomposites), self-healing composites, self-reinforced composites, biocomposites and laminates made of metals and polymer matrix composites is included. Examples of practical applications in various fields are provided throughout the book, with extensive references to the literature. The book is intended for use in graduate and upper-division undergraduate courses and as a reference for the practicing engineers and researchers in industry and academia.

Fibrous Materials
Updated discussion of the processing, microstructure, properties, and applications of fibers such as polymers, metals, ceramics and glass.
Mechanical Behavior of Materials
Fully revised and updated, the new edition of this classic textbook places a stronger emphasis on real-world test data and trains students in practical materials applications; introduces new testing techniques such as micropillar compression and electron back scatted diffraction; and presents new coverage of biomaterials, electronic materials, and cellular materials alongside established coverage of metals, polymers, ceramics and composites. Retaining its distinctive emphasis on a balanced mechanics-materials approach, it presents fundamental mechanisms operating at micro- and nanometer scales across a wide range of materials, in a way that is mathematically simple and requires no extensive knowledge of materials, and demonstrates how these microstructures determine the mechanical properties of materials. Accompanied by online resources for instructors, and including over 40 new figures, over 100 worked examples, and over 740 exercises, including over 280 new exercises, this remains the ideal introduction for senior undergraduate and graduate students in materials science and engineering.
Metal Matrix Composites
In the last few years, a significant increase in applications of MMCs has taken place, particularly in the areas of automotive, aerospace, electronics, and recreation. These include continuous fiber reinforced MMCs for cables in power transmission, high temperature superconducting wires, particulate MMCs in civilian aircraft and automotive applications, and high volume fraction, high thermal conductivity substrates for electronic packaging. Nevertheless, as with any novel material systems, there is a lack of fundamental understanding on the part of practicing engineers and designers. This book would seek to address these issues, in a thorough and cohesive manner, as well as to provide students and scientists with a basic understanding of MMCs. This book will emphasize the synergistic relationships among processing, structure, and properties of metal matrix composites.
Ceramic Matrix Composites
Materials science and engineering (MS&E) is by its very nature an inter disciplinary activity. Researchers from a wide variety of disciplines, metal lurgy, ceramics, physics, chemistry, mechanics, electrical and electronic engineering, etc. can and do participate in the MS&E activities. The need and desirability of such an interdisciplinary effort is understandable inas much as advanced or high-performance materials are critical for any of the modern industries. It is almost a given axiom that progress in any field (energy, building materials, transportation, electronics, aerospace, electric power, consumer products, etc.) depends on the availability of suitable In this regard, let me quote ...
Ceramic Matrix Composites
After an introductory chapter, the processing, microstructure, and properties of various ceramic materials, reinforcements, and their composites are described. A separate chapter is devoted to processing of ceramic reinforcements, with a special emphasis on fibers. Processing of ceramic matrix composites is the next chapter, which includes novel techniques such as sol-gel processing and ceramics from polymeric precursors. The next four chapters cover the subjects of interface region in ceramic composites, mechanical and physical properties, and the role of thermal stresses and the important subject of toughness enhancement. Laminated composites made of ceramics are described in a separate chapter. Finally, a chapter is devoted to various applications of ceramic matrix composites. Throughout the text, the underlying relationships between the components of the triad: processing, microstructure, and properties are brought out. An exhaustive list of references and suggested reading is provided.
Laser Applications in Manufacturing
This book introduces the emerging areas of laser-based manufacturing such as additive manufacturing (AM) of metal matrix composites (MMCs), joining of hard-to-weld superalloys, damage-free machining of fiber-reinforced composites, surface properties enhancement using cladding techniques, and modeling and simulation of laser beam manufacturing techniques. Laser Applications in Manufacturing provides a quick guide for researchers and academicians to recent advancements in the development of powder-based MMCs manufactured using AM technology. This book: shows recent developments in functionally graded sheets or laminates and fabrication of fiber-reinforced composite using sheet lamination print...
