When fibres in a composite are discontinuous and are shorter than a few millimetres, the composite is called a 'short fibre reinforced composite (SFRP)'. SFRPs have found extensive applications in automobiles, business machines, and durable consumer items, sporting goods and electrical industries owing to their low cost, easy processing and superior mechanical properties over the parent polymers.
The first edition of this book summarised recent developments in this field of research, focusing on the fundamental mechanisms that govern the mechanical properties including strength, modulus, fracture toughness and thermal properties of SFRP materials.
The following topics were discussed in detail: extrusion compounding and injection moulding, major factors affecting mechanical performance, stress transfer, strength, elastic modulus and flexural modulus, thermal conductivity and expansion, non-linear stress-strain behaviour and fracture mechanics.
With its distinguished team of authors, the Science and Engineering of Short Fibre Reinforced Polymer Composites became the standard reference for anyone involved in the development, manufacture and use of SFRPs providing an in-depth understanding of the behaviour of these versatile materials.
This new edition, fully updated, will present new developments in this field of research and include new chapters on electrical conductivity, structural monitoring, functional properties, self-healing, finite element method techniques, multi-scale SFRCs and modern computational methods and process engineering methods.

Composite materials are defined as "engineered materials made from two or more constituent materials with significantly different physical or chemical properties which remain separate and distinct on a macroscopic level within the finished structure".
Recently, the utilization of composites has increased in various areas of science and engineering due to their special mechanical and physical properties. Therefore, composites have the potential to replace conventional materials in various fields of application such as automotive, biomedical, aeronautical and aerospace as well as in others advanced industries. Recently, advanced composites, for example, nanocomposites and biocomposites had been gaining ground for the development of new products in several industries.
The goal of Advanced Composites is the combined presentation of materials, manufacturing technology and engineering aspects of composites. This Series covers the complete range of multi scale composite materials, including nanocomposites, biocomposites, functional and smart composites, structural composites, gradient and layered composites, eco-composites, composites based in natural materials, etc. Current topics of interest include the physical and chemical properties, microstructural characterization of composites, design and manufacture of composites and structures, mechanical behaviour in use environments, testing and characterisation techniques, modelling and optimization methods, fracture, creep, tribology, machinability and performance of composites in service.

Reinforcement of materials by fibres with high tensile stiffness and strength allows the production of composite materials of high strength and toughness. Understanding the basic principles underlying this ability for reinforcement is critical to achieving desired properties in engineering fibre composite materials. In recent decades, technological advancements have enabled the structural properties of fibre composites to be investigated at different length scales, providing new insights. These investigations involved computer modelling using techniques such as finite element analysis and molecular mechanics, and relating micro and nanoscopic structures (derived from tools such as electron and atomic force microscopes) with mechanical properties derived from stress and strain measurements (using techniques such as Raman microscopy and x-rays from synchrotron sources). Nanotechnology has enabled the fabrication of nanometre fibres to yield greater composite strength and toughness.
Fundamentals of Stress Transfer in Short-fibre Reinforcing Composites provides a survey of the concepts of fibre reinforced composites. These concepts are based on insights gained from current studies of short fibre reinforcement in composite materials. The concepts deal with the mechanisms of stress transfer and are explained as part of a general theory for understanding how fibres reinforce composites at different stages of the loading regime from initial loading up to composite rupture. In a fibrous composite the two components could fail at different strains when the load on the composite increases. The mechanisms of the transfer of stress between fibre and matrix are discussed by addressing the different loading regimes of the stress-strain curve from initial loading to rupture. Mechanisms of stress transfer are crucial for understanding:
how the matrix and the fibre respond elastically to the external load (shear-lag analysis);
how the interface regulates stress transfer;
how intermediate modes of failure, e.g. matrix cracking, interfacial bond failure, fibre rupture, could occur;
how the matrix shear-slides over fibres (shear-sliding analysis);
how fibre pull-out occurs; and
how fibre fragmentation occurs.
The reader, having grasped the general theory, should then be able to apply it to solving problems concerning the engineering of fibre composite materials. This makes Fundamentals of Stress Transfer in Short-fibre Reinforcing Composites a useful guide for students, researchers and engineers interested in fibre composites.

Описание:
Among all building materials, concrete is the most commonly used-and there is a staggering demand for it. However, as we strive to build taller structures with improved seismic resistance or durable pavement with an indefinite service life, we require materials with better performance than the conventional materials used today. Considering the enormous investment in public infrastructure and society's need to sustain it, the need for new and innovative materials for the repair and rehabilitation of civil infrastructure becomes more evident. These improved properties may be defined in terms of carbon footprint, life-cycle cost, durability, corrosion resistance, strength, ductility, and stiffness.
Addressing recent trends and future directions, Mechanics of Fiber and Textile Reinforced Cement Composites presents new opportunities for developing innovative and cost-effective materials and techniques in cement and concrete composites manufacturing, testing, and design. The book offers mathematical models, experimental results, and computational algorithms for efficient designs with fiber and textile reinforced composite systems. It explores alternative solutions using blended cements, innovative reinforcing systems, natural fibers, experimental characterization of key parameters used for design, and optimized designs. Each chapter begins with a detailed introduction, supplies a thorough overview of the existing literature, and sets forth the reasoning behind the experimentation and theory.
Documenting the composite action of fibers and textiles, the book develops and explains methods for manufacturing and testing cement composites. Methods to design and analyze structures for reduced weight, increased durability, and minimization of cement use are also examined. The book demonstrates that using a higher volume fraction of fiber systems can result in composites that are quasi-elastic plastic. Speaking to the need to
