Literature Survey of the Field of Fiber-Reinforced Plastic Composites: Part 1

摘要

This report contains the abstracts from approximately 1950 references in the area of fiber-reinforced plastic composites. The survey covers the unclassified publications( reports, journal articles, theses, etc.) from the period 1958 to August 1970, with particular emphasis on boron, glass, and graphite fiber materials. The abstract presents an in-depth coverage of the mechanical, thermal, and optical characterization of fiber-reinforced plastics as well aso the analytical methods used to predict laminate behavior on both the microscopic and macroscopic scale. The area of failure and the influence of physico-chemical effects on mechanical behavior are also reviewed. Finally, special sections on design and application, materials and fabrication, and special test procedures are included.
